Father Francois Ponchaud, a published author, writes on Cambodian politics and history and speaks fluent Khmer with Cambodian villagers. Mother Rosemary leads a life of silence and prayer in a convent in Oxford. Yet both the active missionary priest and the contemplative Mother Superior practice Buddhist meditation. For Father Ponchaud, who lost nearly all his students in the Cambodian "killing fields," meditation sustains him in the face of tragedy, as well as in everyday life. For Mother Rosemary, this meditation lent support to her life of prayer when "prayer seemed to go dead." In the era of globalization, when human ventures and ideas are being thrown together an unprecedented rate, Father Ponchaud and Mother Rosemary point a way forward both for institutional religions and for seekers of truth outside the confines of convention. They shed light on the character of Jesus Christ, the path of the Buddha and the call to holiness. They demonstrate that it is possible to retain deep roots in one tradition while being profoundly enriched by another. 001355573 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001355573 533__ $$aElectronic reproduction.$$bAlexandria, VA :$$cAlexander Street Press,$$d2011.$$f(VAST: academic video online).$$nAvailable via World Wide Web. 001355573 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001355573 60010 $$aPonchaud, François,$$d1939- 001355573 650_0 $$aBuddhism$$xRelations$$xChristianity. 001355573 650_0 $$aChristianity and other religions$$xBuddhism. 001355573 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355573 7001_ $$aChanner, Alan.$$4drt$$4pro 001355573 7001_ $$aDavis, Clare Gartrell.$$4pro 001355573 7001_ $$aChanner, David.$$4pro 001355573 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747796356 001355573 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1630993 001355573 901__ $$aASP1630993/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25419$$tbiblio 001355573 905__ $$uadmin 001355573 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355573$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355573 941__ $$a1003826799 001355573 944__ $$a1689411 001355573 945__ $$aThe Whole World$$cChina 001355573 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355573 980__ $$aBIB 001355573 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355573 983__ $$aOnline
