Those who live according to the Rule, which regulates daily life in a monastery; regard it as the bedrock of their lives and feel great affection for its writer, a monk whose humility and extraordinary insight into human nature are legendary The Rule has fascinated laypeople and monastics alike, including Buddhist monks and nuns who are intrigued by the similarities between their traditions and those of their Christian counterparts. Now, four prominent Buddhist scholars, Norman Fischer, a Zen priest and founder of the Everyday Zen Foundation; Joseph Goldstein, cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society; Judith Simmer~Brown, professor and chair of the Buddhist Studies Program at Naropa University; and Yifa, a nun at Fo Guang Shan Monastery in Taiwan and faculty member at National Sun Yat~Sen University, have turned their attention to this seminal text. The fruit of their discussion is Benedict's Dharma. Through personal anecdotes, lively debate, and thoughtful comparison, they reveal how the wisdom of each monastic tradition can revitalize the other, and how their own spiritual practices have been enriched through familiarity with the Rule. Their insights will appeal not only to Buddhists and Christians, but to anyone interested in the ancient discipline of monasticism and what it might have to offer a materially glutted and spiritually famished culture. Benedict's Dharma also includes a modern translation of the Rule of Saint Benedict by Patrick Barry, OSB, the former abbot of Ampleforth. This very readable translation will serve as a valuable reference and make the Rule come alive for the contemporary reader.…
