Unabridged Audiobook
I've had several interactions with folks proclaiming to be Buddhist. This book made a big difference for me in understanding some of the strongest difference between Buddhism and Christianity. For instance, I didn't realize Buddha taught the greatest road to peace was separation from all things. That includes relationships. If all those are removed and mediation/self reflection is what you strive for supposedly you reach a point to have a better life in the next life eventually getting to nirvana. I can't imagine what life would be like with out relationships which is the core of Christ teachings. God said to Moses, "I'd rather be in the thorns and thistles with you than the land flowing of milk and honey with out you". Buddha and his followers are either extremely self focused or lonely!
