For me, at their best, Process philosophy and Buddhism engage in the “project of ontology”, not in order to try and construct a perfectly itemized, categorical reflection of reality, but to reconstruct experience in service of some greater praxis: the path to awakening in Buddhism and the adventure of civilization in Process.
Since both DE-construct inherited notions, assumptions and ways of thinking and being that pose as an obstruction to our seeing things as they really are — as always-already empty and incessantly in-process — in order to RE-construct the nature and dynamics of experience in a way that is concordant with the way things really are — being as becoming — Process philosophy and Buddhism are (or rather they have the potential to be) companions, comrades, or best friends on the way to realizing reality together.
This is why Process Buddhism is not a totalizing, wholly synthetic system. It is more like a Deleuzian assemblage: a dynamically integrated composition of heterogeneous elements that only loosely maintains a stable unity based on solidarity rather than identity, and is always capable of evolving and becoming-other.
Process Buddhism does NOT come together because Process or Buddhism lack something that the other has (like co-dependent partners), nor does it come together because of some trivial and chance encounter without precedent or promise (like a one-night stand).
Process Buddhism comes together because they have been more or less on the same mission and fighting the same struggle relatively independently and autonomously (freedom from reification and domination), but have now found each other as fellow comrades with whom they can sync up their values and combine their powers to realize the same reality they strive for in common — even as this reality far exceeds their ability to conceptually grasp, as they both equally acknowledge.
In its very being, the synthesis of Process Buddhism models the very kind of relationality that it describes as the ground of the real and that it prescribes as the ideal aim: solidarity-in-difference, or said more simply, loving friendship.
