Universal love is the recognition that each and every person merits a hearing, and that is really central to Merton's understanding of Catholicism and of religion in general.
What happens when you bring together the teachings of Christianity and Buddhism? Dr. Greg Hillis, a Christian scholar, takes on this intriguing question in an enlightening episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment'. With a focus on universal love, mystical experiences, and social activism, Hillis navigates the rich intersections between these two spiritual traditions. Drawing on his expertise in Thomas Merton’s teachings, he offers a fresh perspective on how analytical meditation can deepen our compassion and understanding.
The conversation touches on the beauty and interconnectedness of reality, urging us to see the innate goodness in everyone, even those we disagree with. This episode is perfect for anyone interested in exploring how different faiths can come together to promote nonviolence and inter-religious dialogue. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges conventional boundaries and opens up new pathways to inner peace.
