Abstract
The dialogue between Zen and Christianity has been becoming more serious and important during the past decade or so. Those of us involved in it are pleased with this development because we maintain that such a dialogue is necessary for the development of mutual understanding between East and West.
This is a record of the present author’s lecture and discussion at a Seminar on Zen Buddhism for Christian missionaries, arranged September 1974 by the NCe Study Center in Kyoto.
