The Jew in the lotus

Book • 2025
Rodger Kamenetz documents a 1990 interfaith dialogue between eight Jewish leaders and the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, India, exploring how Jewish traditions of survival and mysticism intersect with Tibetan Buddhist practices.

The book examines Jewish identity through encounters with 'JUBUs' (Jewish Buddhists) and reveals hidden Jewish meditative traditions, while chronicling Kamenetz's personal journey toward a deeper connection with his heritage.
