The Jew in the Lotus: A Poet's Rediscovery of Jewish Identity

The Jew in the Lotus: A Poet's Rediscovery of Jewish Identity in Buddhist India (Plus)

While accompanying eight highâ€“spirited Jewish delegates to Dharamsala, India, for a historic Buddhistâ€“Jewish dialogue with the Dalai Lama, poet Rodger Kamenetz comes to understand the convergence of Buddhist and Jewish thought. Along the way he encounters Ram Dass and Richard Gere, and dialogues with leading rabbis and Jewish thinkers, including Zalman Schacter, Yitz and Blue Greenberg, and a host of religious and disaffected Jews and Jewish Buddhists.
This amazing journey through Tibetan Buddhism and Judaism leads Kamenetz to a renewed appreciation of his living Jewish roots.
