Synopsis

For twenty years a group of spiritual seekers from many religious traditions met in various places around the United States under the rubric of the Snowmass Conferences to engage in the deepest form of interreligious dialogue. The experience was intimate and trusting transformative and inspiring. To encourage openness and honesty no audio or visual recording was made of and no articles were written about the encounters. When these encounters came to an end it was agreed that reflections on what had happened emotionally spiritually philosophically and theologically during the Snowmass dialogues should be written down. The result is THE COMMON HEART. Here is an extraordinary exploration of the wealth of the world's spiritual traditions combined with dialogue from the heart about the differences and similarities between their paths of wisdom. Participants include Fr. Thomas Keating Roshi Bernie Glassman Swami Atmarupananda Dr. Ibrahim Gamard Imam Bilal Hyde Pema Chödrön Rabbi Henoch Dov Hoffman and many others.
