{"product_id":"2940149400089","title":"A Zen Buddhist Encounters Quakerism","description":"I had a chance to study Quakerism at Swarthmore College as a visiting scholar for one year from April, 1989. I attended from time to time the Sunday worship at Swarthmore Friends Meeting and at Pendle Hill (a Quaker center for study and contemplation near Swarthmore). I also became one of the more regular sitters at a weekly meeting for Zen sitting held at Pendle Hill. Through these experiences I had a glimpse of Quakerism as it actually lives today for many Friends in that area. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe present article tries to compare Quakerism with Zen Buddhism, but it is by no means a systematic, exhaustive comparison. Rather, it is a personal attempt to understand more deeply some salient features of Quakerism that I have happened to notice as a Zen follower. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Pendle Hill Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47068015296752,"sku":"2940149400089","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149400089_p0.jpg?v=1763716856","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149400089","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
