The author presents a series of lectures that examine Buddhism and Christianity side by side, arguing for a careful comparative theology that treats non-Christian faiths with respect while testing points of agreement and contradiction. The work surveys historical antecedents and the differing formation and authority of their scriptures, outlines doctrinal and ethical correspondences, and warns against simplistic theories of direct derivation. It highlights areas where Buddhism resonates with universal religious aspirations and where Christianity, theologically, claims a distinctive fulfilment of those aspirations. The treatment combines descriptive exposition of Buddhist teachings with critical reflection grounded in contemporary scholarship and aims to clarify both resemblances and decisive contrasts.
