Buddhist Wisdom and Christian Truth: Expanding Horizons of Catholic Faith and Understanding
Ruben L.F. Habito is professor of world religions and spirituality and director of spiritual formation at the Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University. He is also the founding teacher of Maria Kannon Zen Center in Dallas, a lay community of Zen practitioners that now counts his wife, Maria Reis Habito, as one of its teachers. Encouraged by his Jesuit spiritual director, Habito began practicing Zen under Yamada Kōun Rōshi in 1971 and, in 1988, was formally authorized as a Zen teacher and given the Zen title Keiun-ken (Grace Cloud Lineage).
