Title: From Montserrat to Mampukuji: Reports on the Fourth Spiritual Exchange
Abstract: Editors Note: In the News and Notes section of the 1990 issue of this journal, we presented three reports on the Third Spiritual Exchange in the Buddhist-Christian intermonastic dialogue. In that exchange, Buddhist monks and nuns went fromJapan to live in Catholic monasteries in Europe. The reports we published were from two Zen monks, Gensho Hozumi and his disciple Genkai Sugimoto, who stayed in the Monastery of Montserrat in Spain, and from one of the Christian hosts in Montserrat, Bartomeu Ubach. During the Fourth Spiritual Exchange, fourteen monks and six nuns from Catholic monasteries in Europe went to Japan from 11 October to 9 November 1990. Among these Christian contemplatives was Bartomeu Ubach, representing the Monastery of Montserrat. This section opens with Ubach's report on his visit toJapan and his stay in Mampukuji, the monastic center of the Obaku sect of Zen Buddhism in Japan. Ubach's report is followed by reports from Gensho Hozumi Roshi, one of the Buddhists responsible for the intermonastic exchange inJapan, and Chisei Tanaka, a monk from the host monastery of Mampukuji.
