Descrizione
Riepilogo:The author, who is both a Christian and a Zen Buddhist, considers the meaning of Acts 9:8 in light of that dual religiosity. Paul's experience of God has great resonances with the Zen Buddhist view of "God" as absolute nothingness. This cross-religious view of God also comports well with Meister Eckhart's exegesis of this passage in his seventy-first sermon as well as with the views of the sixth-century B.C.E. Greek philosopher Heraclitus.
