Did you know that the last USCCA Book Circle Discussion of the Fall semester will take place on November 16? Throughout the year, Book Circle participants have learned about Catholicism in dialogue with Eastern spiritual traditions through the writings of Thomas Merton and John C. H. Wu.
On November 16, the USCCA Book Circle will discuss the perspectives of Bonnie Thurston and John P. Keenan on Merton's understanding of Buddhism. According to Bonnie Thurston, "The aspects of Buddhism which particularly attracted Merton were its articulation of the paths of spiritual development, its 'cultural alternative,' and its contribution to monastic renewal."
