Items related to Reaching for the Moon – On Asian Religious Paths
Synopsis
The title of this book is inspired by a Japanese Zen image of a monkey reaching for the image of the moon reflected in a pond. One of the themes of the book is that the reflected image, while not the truth in and of itself, reflects the truth and is thus worth reaching for.

Review
What a refreshing experience to read an honest book like "Reaching for the Moon." It is not a speculation or mindless display of technical knowledge about other religious traditions. The author--a man of sincere religious faith--writes about other persons' religious faiths with profound affection, respect and understanding. Morgan is aware of many stumbling blocks and hazards for genuine inter-religious understanding and cooperation. But he also exemplifies - through his own life - the rich reward for such a spiritual pilgrimage. This book will be an invaluable guide for those who wish to learn from followers of religious ways other than ones own. Like all his earlier volumes, this one will give many helpful pointers to a wide variety of readers.
