Having lived in the West during more than thirty years, exiled from his native Vietnam, Thich Nhat Hanh has become known as a healer of the heart, looking for our cultural wounds and trying to find a way to repair them. Going Home deals with the wound he sees most often, our alienation from our own spiritual traditions.

This audiobook continues the dialogue with Christianity that began in Living Buddha, Living Christ. In that audiobook, the door was opened to the idea that Buddha and Jesus speak to each other. In Going Home, they sit down and talk about each other's prayers and rituals. They ask how they can help renew each other's traditions. They look at the convergence of concepts such as mindfulness practice and resurrection. They see where the Buddhist understanding of the nature of reality and the concept of God come together. Their conversation shows the deep connection between Jesus and Buddha. It shows the brotherhood they share. And most important, it shows a way to return to our spirituality as our only true home.
