Abstract

I understand that the theme of the dialogue ‘Interfaith Relations and World Peace’ implies a question: How can interfaith relations contribute to world peace? And in this regard the following two issues must be considered. First, what is true world peace? And second, in light of Marjorie Suchocki’s paper, ‘Sūnyatā, Trinity and Community’, what kind of interfaith relations can contribute to true world peace? I will discuss these issues from a Buddhist point of view.
