This is wonderful resource that I found by typing into Google "thomas merton buddhist photographs". I was trying to find the site in Sir Lanka where he had an epiphany while looking at the giant rock carvings of the Buddha and Ananda. That site by the way is the Gil Vihara at Polonnaruwa.
This blog is by Debbie who understands the Catholic Faith very well but is finding a much sought after need for a deeper experience of God and is discovering this through her explorations with Vipassana. As she puts it "The institutional church, and things such as the Vat II docs all point to the exoteric church. I believe that we have lost sight of the esoteric church. As a result, we see so many young people, in search for a God they can experience, turning to eastern experiences and why Eastern Spirituality has become SO appealing to many of the young who are searching for meaning in their live."
