This book came to me from the free shelf at my local library but I have been wanting to read it since I first read a review of it almost three decades ago. I am neither Jewish nor Buddhist but I am interested in learning about other faith traditions and communities, and Kamenetz offers clear-headed observations about Tibetan Buddhism, American Judaism, and the reasons people who grow up in one religious tradition might find a more vivid faith by switching to a different one. This is a fascinating account of a visit by a diverse group of rabbis to Dharamsala at the invitation of the Dalai Lama and what the rabbis and Kamenetz learned there and thereafter. I learned a lot about both faiths, even accounting for change in the nearly thirty years since this book was published and reading this inspired me to reflect more deeply on my own attitudes toward my own faith and others beyond Buddhism and Judaism.

> LE JUIF DANS LE LOTUS, de Rodger Kamenetz (éd. Calmann-Lévy). — Curieux et intéressant l'ouvrage qui narre la rencontre à Dharamsala d'un groupe de rabbins américains et du Dalaï-lama. Deux traditions multimillénaires et persécutées, deux diasporas et de grands sages qui se rencontrent, communiquent et partagent leur savoir : c'est fascinant de véracité et de profondeur. Extrait : « Zalman, qui a enseigné la psychologie des religions, pensait qu'un enseignant d'aujourd'hui doit aider ses étudiants à accéder aux trésors de la tradition. Il a raconté à son auditoire comment, alors qu'il avait conduit un jour des visiteurs devant le rebbe des Loubavitchs, l'un d'eux avait demandé à celui-ci : “A quoi servez-vous ?” Et le rebbe avait répondu : “Je ne parle pas pour moi, je parle de ce que mon maître a été pour moi. Pour moi, il était un géologue de l'âme. Il y a beaucoup de richesse dans l'âme : il y a la foi, il y a l'amour, il y a le respect, il y a la sagesse, tous ces joyaux que vous pouvez déterrer. Mais si vous ne savez pas où creuser, vous retirez seulement de la boue, comme Freud, ou des cailloux comme Adler. Et si vous voulez avoir de l'or, qui est la crainte révérencieuse de Dieu, et l'argent, qui est l'amour, et les diamants, qui sont la foi, alors vous devez trouver le géologue de l'âme qui vous dira où chercher… Mais creuser, c'est à vous de le faire.” » Ce livre a été un best-seller aux Etats-Unis et ce ne fut pas volé.

LOVING THIS! I picked it up at a yard sale. How is it possible that I'd never heard of it before? ( )
