This volume represents the first book-length treatment in English of one of the greatest mystical writers in Christian history, Jan van Ruusbroec (1293-1381). A careful reading of the texts by the Flemish historian Paul Mommaers focuses on two delicate relationships: that between mysticism and religiosity and that between a mysticism of union in love and the more metaphysical mysticism of unity. Winding in and out of this presentation is a commentary by theologian of religions Jan Van Bragt, which attempts to place the problematic in a wider, interreligious context by contrasting the spiritual path of Buddhism with that of the Christian mystical way. The combined result is not only an original reading of the great Flemish love-mystic, but a groundbreaking attempt to view religious history through the dual lenses of one's own faith and that of the faith of others. Ruusbroec's approach is seen to challenge traditional ideas about differences between the Buddhist and Christian ways and to open new possibilities for further encounters at the level of mystical thought and practice.

If the Western world knows anything about Zen Buddhism, it is down to the efforts of one remarkable man, D.T. Suzuki. The twenty-seven year-old Japanese scholar first visited the West in 1897, and over the course of the next seventy years became the world's leading authority on Zen. His radical and penetrating insights earned him many disciples, from Carl Jung to Allen Ginsberg, from Thomas Merton to John Cage. In Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist Suzuki compares the teachings of the great Christian mystic Meister Eckhart with the spiritual wisdom of Shin and Zen Buddhism. By juxtaposing cultures that seem to be radically opposed, Suzuki raises one of the fundamental questions of human experience: at the limits of our understanding is there an experience that is universal to all humanity? Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist is a book that challenges and inspires; it will benefit readers of all religions who seek to understand something of the nature of spiritual life.

This guide to meditation and spirituality draws on both Buddhist and Christian sources to present a unique path to enlightenment. Intended for those who earnestly seek spiritual guidance, this book conveys, with clear structure and precise language, the deepest wisdom of eastern and western mysticism. Drawing from his vast experience as a practicing meditation master, and using examples from great masters of Zen and Christian mysticism, Wolfgang Kopp presents the fundamental elements necessary for a successful journey to inner freedom. The reader is instructed directly, as though he or she is under the present guidance of the author. As closely as the written world permits, the reader experiences the compassionate love and spiritual power that otherwise could be felt only in the immediate presence of a great enlightened master. Free Yourself of Everything will lead readers to that extraordinary experience where the belief in a conceptual God is replaced by enlightenment in one's own mind.

This selection of compelling essays by D. T. Suzuki compare the beliefs of Christianity to those of Buddhism, revealing what the two religions share in common. The author was struck by the spiritual thinking of Meister Eckhart, a theologian who lived in 13th century Germany. Seeing how Eckhart contemplated his religion, and the similarities his writings carried to those of Mahayana Buddhism, encouraged Suzuki to investigate further. What followed, over a number of years, were the essays that comprise this book - a compelling sequence of comparisons between thinkers of the Christian and Buddhist traditions. Suzuki focuses upon the comparison between the path of the Christian to spiritual affinity with God, and the Buddhist path to enlightenment, via meditation and mindfulness. In Eckhart's writings he finds much in common: for example, the Buddhist principle of emptiness, whereby the soul is detached from the corporeal realm and in closer affinity to the divine, is comparison to what Eckhart termed "abegescheidenheit"; a detachment from worldly affairs. In discussing parallels between the two religions, Suzuki is salient and lucid. The later chapters examine verses relevant to the themes already expounded upon, namely the treatment of the human soul and the changes it must undertake on a spiritual path.
