description: Drawing parallels and noting disparities, the author contrasts the mystic qualities between Christianity — as expressed in the writings of Meister Eckhart (1260–1326), an unconventional ecclesiastic who encouraged transcendence of traditional faith — and Buddhism, explicating the views of both on such concepts as infinity, eternity, and the transmigration of souls.
