Description - The Sound of Liberating Truth by Paul Ingram
Offers essays and dialogues by well-known Buddhist and Christian scholars on topics that were of primary interest to Frederick J. Streng, in whose honour the volume was created. The volume shows the interdependence of serious reflection on such apparently separate topics as ultimate reality, our experience of nature, our involvement in social engagement against the forces of oppression, and our sense of the possibilities for humanity's and all of life's ultimate transformation. This interdependence is quite apparent in the present essays. For example, metaphysical and cosmological beliefs can be seen to very much affect the manner of interaction with nature and with social issues; each faith's present historical situatedness profoundly affects its priorities in, and beliefs about, interreligious dialogue. Moreover, the reader will notice many instances in which a given issue (for example, the question of whether ultimate reality has a personal dimension) turns up again and again throughout the essays.
