All sailing ships move through the one ocean, encircling the earth, Though the number of their masts, and the shape of their sails may differ. This does not mean that all houses have the same view, Or that all ships arrive at the same shore. That depends upon on many factors. But all houses and ships share a basic function. And Buddhists and Christians share a common path.
Houses give shelter.
Ships carry us across water. Buddhists and Christians, and all established religions, Begin by practicing Love. Or at least, that is how I understand The one great teaching of all religions. So let us not fight over a few ephemeral words, Letting phantoms of illusory meaning come between us. Let us first begin by acknowledging our common ground, Honoring and genuinely caring for one another.
