A Hare Krishna Swami Tells All

A review of H.H. Radhanath Swami's autobiographical account The Journey Home: Autobiography of a American Swami by Catholic scholar Francis X Clooney [Harvard Bio Page]:

There is much to be said about Christ and Krishna, of course; books on the topic have been written for centuries, and this book does not resolve the theological questions that arise when two great monotheistic traditions meet; we who are Christian still have tough questions to ask (ourselves in particular). But it should help us all to hear each other’s stories, how God was found, how God finds us when we are young and keeps after us for a lifetime. We should imagine a kind of dialogue — not of religions or theologies this time — but of women and men of different traditions who, upon reaching a certain age, tell their stories with a certain wisdom and humor and in that way speak to one another across religious boundaries.
