tariki Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Dutch, Thanks for posting this link, I've taken a quick look and will certainly go back for more. There's a wonderful book by Diana Eck called "Encountering God" which tells of her own journey to Benares, the Holy City of the Hindu's. Starting out as a basically "conservative" believer she was led, never-the-less to a deepening of her own faith by opening to the obvious truths she encountered in her life with various Hindu people. The book is in fact a very good introduction to Interfaith dialogue. Derek
