9780826412454: Happiness Here and Now: The Eightfold Path of Jesus Revisited With Buddhist Insights

Synopsis

Elizabeth West uses insights from Buddhism, specifically the Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path, to look at the teachings of Jesus within The Beatitudes. The study focuses on the fact that The Beatitudes are written in the present tense ("Blessed are...; theirs is...") indicating that the promises given are not for the future or afterlife, but rather they are states of being that as Christians we are meant to realize here and now.
