End to Suffering [EPUB ebook]
The Buddha in the World

Ajutor

Copertina de Pankaj Mishra: End to Suffering (ePUB)

Is the Buddha still relevant today and, if so, in what way? Pankaj Mishra tries to answer this question as he travels through poverty-ridden South Asia to gilded Europe and America. Along the way he discovers how Buddhist thought has flowered even in a materialistic world, and reveals the parallels between the age of the Buddha and the contemporary world. A rich, challenging and deeply contemplative work, An End to Suffering is regarded as many to be Mishra s masterpiece.
