In this inspiring, soul-stirring memoir, Lawrence E. Carter Sr., founding dean of the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel, shares his remarkable quest to experience King's "beloved community" and his surprising discovery in mid-life that King's dream was being realized by the Japanese Buddhist philosopher and tireless peace worker Daisaku Ikeda. Coming of age on the cusp of the American Civil Rights Movement, Carter was personally mentored by Martin Luther King Jr. and followed in his footsteps, first to get an advanced degree in theology at Boston University and then to teach and train a new generation of activists and ministers at King's alma mater, Morehouse College. Over the years, however, Carter was disheartened to watch the radical cosmic vision at the heart of King's message gradually diluted and marginalized. He found himself in near despair--until his remarkable encounter with the lay Buddhist association Soka Gakkai International and a life-changing meeting with Ikeda, its president. Carter knew that King had been inspired by Gandhi, a Hindu, and now Ikeda, a Buddhist, was showing him how King's message of justice, equality, and the fundamental dignity of life could be carried to millions of people around the world. What ensued was not a conversion but a conversation--about the essential role of interfaith dialogue, the primacy of education, and the value of a living faith to create a human revolution and realize at last Martin Luther King's truest dream of a global world house. In these dark and frustrating times, the powerful dialogue between Carter and Ikeda gives hope and guidance to a new generation of reformers, activists, and visionaries.

Keeps shape whether holding hot soup or hot casserole
I have used these bowls daily for several months, and they are consistently good quality. They stand up to hot soup or hot casserole without degrading during use. I have even reheated in the microwave. When you must use disposables, these are great.

Great all around bowls especially for a cat food bowl.
Kitty food bowl liners (20 ounce size). I use cereal bowls for cat food, as find the tiny pet bowls fairly useless for grown cats - they get pushed around, and slopped over. But the kitties walk away from their food and come back, so of course it gets all gummy. Using these as food bowl liners keeps everything fresh and u are not scraping crust off the dishes all the time. Of course I grab them too for my own snacks. I used to get bowls at grocery and would get twitchy when I ran out, and get real irritated when all that was available was plastic bowls. These are just a great all around product and bulk buying is so convenient; plus even the pattern is soothing and attractive. Not sure the cats care but they might.

Good value
I like that I can buy these in large quantities. Get a little soft with liquids after sitting for a while. There’s sturdier bowls on the market but these work well for the price.

Will buy again.
I've already bought these twice. The first batch, bottom bowl had a slice in it, like someone had cut it while opening the box, but I didn't use a knife to open them, so it had to have been part of a bigger box. Anyway, it was just the one, the very last bowl. That was a surprise with my cereal, lol.
