Leloup's book has less to do with the profound and thorough mutual interpenetration of Buddhist and Christian traditions than does Knitter's "Without Buddha I Could Not Be a Christian" (reviewed above); it has more to do with the utility of some aspects of Buddhist practice and tradition for the convinced Christian. Leloup ("Judas and Jesus"), a French Orthodox priest, founder of the International College of Therapists, and translator of Coptic texts, duly compares "Hesychasm" (the Orthodox practice of interior prayer) with Buddhist meditation and aspects of Jesus with aspects of the Buddha, with remarkably little result. VERDICT An original if limited venture toward Buddhism by an Orthodox priest; worth consideration for an interfaith readership if budget permits.
