The Buddha and the badge

a journey of personal discovery
Michael James Jaquish
Book - 2010

"The Buddha and the badge reveals what it is like to grow up as a contemplative, spiritually aware Buddhist in a culture dominated by Christianity. ... In 1968 Michael is called to military service at the height of the Vietnam War and the events force him to examine his commitment to the non-violent teachings of Jesus, Gandhi and the Buddha that he was raised to respect. That confrontation opens a door that ignites a serious dedication to pacifism and compassion for all beings. However, his life takes an unexpected turn in 1975 when he finds himself suddenly propelled into a career as a police officer. Will his new job challenge his commitment to his spiritual path, or will it open oppotunities for compassion and service?"-- back cover
