Boeddha leeft, Christus leeft

His insights feel very respectful and balanced, but I wonder what specific experiences or beliefs led him to draw these parallels. Did he find this synthesis naturally or through specific encounters?

The book emphasizes unity but also makes me reflect on how these traditions differ in practice. Was that contrast intentional to provoke thought or simply a byproduct?

Thich Nhat Hanh's tone makes complex spiritual ideas feel approachable. I'm curious whether this was a conscious choice to reach a wider audience or a natural part of his teaching style.
