AB Does the commonly used term "interfaith dialogue" really do justice to what happens when people of different religions talk? From a Buddhist perspective, it does not. "Interfaith dialogue" places undue emphasis on the "word," whereas a Buddhist "view of communication" places much more emphasis on all six senses, particularly the mind. Therefore, from a Buddhist perspective, a more accurate and helpful term might be "spiritual interaction".
