Christianity and Buddhism both lead to the miracle which is called transformation. Jesus is Jesus and Buddha is Buddha. For me, they are distinct, yet they are not separate. They are like two beings at my side, each holding one of may hands, helping me to advance on my path. . . . Walking with Thay and with the sangha, I am also walking in the footsteps of Jesus.
