Description
|
|
|
|
In fresh and engaging language, with visualization diagrams and illustrations, this book challenges many commonsense understandings of who we are, what the mind is, and the relationship of the self to the world. Grounded in the Buddhist tradition yet unencumbered by traditional presentations, the book adopts an informal style, examining concepts of love and grasping, as well as what happens when the need for love meets "the great unfixables." The author, born Richard Wright and growing up in the inner city of Detroit during the 1960s and 70s, worked as the clinical director of La Casa, a drug abuse treatment center in southwest Detroit and as a staff psychologist for the University of Toronto before receiving his monastic training and ordination at the Subodharama Monastery in Sri Lanka.
