[quote=Anonymous]Ok, so I'll try to respond to this in a more balanced manner. What you'll struggle with, I think, are the direct contradictions between the foundational doctrines of Christianity and those of Buddhism and Hinduism. For one, Buddhism & Hinduism do not involve a belief in a single God who is omniscient, omnipotent and who created the world. There is no concept of a human being the savior of humanity. There is no concept of a priesthood that is considered closer to God than people. My question to you is how you would reconcile that. Certainly you can practice mindfulness via meditation and yoga without adhering to Buddhist or Hindu beliefs around the permanence of the soul, reincarnation, Nirvana, etc., but I struggle to figure out how you can be a Buddhist Christian without having internal conflict.
