In Quest of Nirvana is a vivid portrayal of the struggle for survival in the author's newly adopted country, the USA, after having been forced to flee from his native Hungary at the end of World War II. He encounters a political haven, a free Democracy, a society where few restrictions exist, but help is available only to those who help themselves. His total loss of a lifestyle that had been comparable to "Utopia" is the reason for a difficult re-start at the lowest economic levels; a fight against all odds, facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Impoverished and degraded from the highest levels of the social elite, the author nevertheless builds upon a basis of moral strength, courage, perseverance and a lasting incentive to achieve consistently improving conditions. His goals are set high; the means by which to reach them are extremely varied, and demand an unrelenting personal drive to overcome a constant series of serious challenges. A life-story that can only be described as fascinating. It consists of a succession of events, arrestingly told, with emphasis on the many quirks of fate rather than on the individual. A vivid presentation of a human life-span made even more realistic by numerous visual examples of important moments of the past fifty years. This autobiography tells a true story, all the more compelling, because eventhough every detail is real, it unfolds in the style of a novel. The reader can't help but be carried along with the ups and downs of a fate rich in unusual experiences and humorous anecdotes. To share in this review of a half-century is rewarding to those who value a summary of significant technological developments as well as taking part in a very special saga of personal evolvement. The author's childhood in Hungary and years of hardship as a refugee in Austria had been described in the predecessor of this work entitled: VISIONS OF UTOPIA.

In Quest of Nirvana: The Poetics of Empathy This is a gem of a poetry collection; the poet's use of word sounds and imagery, subtext and symbolism, metaphor and meaning rhythm and rhyme is scintillating. The Poet gifts to us his own very different brand of poetics opening his floodgates with an eclectic assortment of ideas and thoughts that engage psychology and philosophy, ethics and social and political dystrophy. The 21st century mind and the nature of existence is at the heart of the book. where do we find purpose? Our sense of self and sense of place. His poems weave a tapestry that has the potential to change outlooks on ourselves and our humanity through engaged thought. 'In Quest of Nirvana: The Poetics of Empathy' is stimulating work by London performance poet Ishinga Alexis. The pieces are themed around his engagement and observations navigating the pandemic of diseases of despair that provide the substratum of our being as 21st century individuals and peoples. Diseases from apathy to psychopathy, anxiety to angst, guilt, shame and fear Ishinga paints his montage in storms of words that flow, often with a vengeance, in a poetic philosophical deluge in search of answers to the angst and destructive intent. Ishinga approaches this task with poetic gusto. The poems are crafted to cause you to pause and confront yourself with your own mindfulness and will yourself to contextualize the neurosis and psychosis, the attendant conflict and control with a view to better navigate the land mines and remain spiritually intact, and survive what Ishinga presents as a crisis of truth spurned by the death of empathy and loss of integrity and the bamboozlement over the world's failure to understand the universality of spirituality. Ishinga attends to thorns such as continuous war, global tribalism, grotesque global and national inequality, the unabated destruction of earth the death of privacy, and the evisceration of spirituality. He does so in a hopeful search for healing and change to attune our estrangement from ourselves and each other and transmogrify into a sublime empathy. 'In Quest of Nirvana: The Poetics of Empathy' seeks through poetics of symbolism, metaphor, imagery, and word sound to confront the dissonance and return our spirits to a 'good place' by shedding light sowing seeds of contemplation to stir mindfulness. The poems dig deep down into the viscera of our zeitgeist and through unconcealment endeavours to wipe away the disorientation alienation and obfuscation with poetics. In so doing Ishinga seeks to dissipate the clouds of absurdities that denudes our psyches and disrupts the cathartic flow of our emotional energy. Truly evocative stuff. This is a stunning book; I firmly suggest you place it in your Treasure Island collection. So kindly scroll back up and hit that buy button.

This book presents an answer to the question: what is nirvana? Part I distinguishes between systematic and narrative thought in the Pali texts of Theravada Buddhism in South and Southeast Asia, arguing that nirvana produces closure in both, and setting nirvana in the wider category of Buddhist Felicities. Part II explores other Buddhist utopias (both eu-topias, 'good places', and ou-topias, 'no-places'), and relates Buddhist utopianism to studies of European and American utopian writing. The book ends with a close reading of the Vessantara Jataka, which highlights the conflict between the ascetic quest for closure and ultimate felicity, and the ongoing demands of ordinary life and society. Steven Collins discusses these issues in relation to textuality, world history and ideology in premodern civilizations, aiming to contribute to an alternate vision of Buddhist history, which can hold both the inside and the outside of texts together.

NIRVANA THE HIGHEST HAPPINESS is the fruit of a lifetime of meditation, and contemplation of Buddhist questions. Written in a lucid style, this book covers all the major aspects of Buddhism such as karma, meditation, the illusion of 'I', the belief in a Creator-God, the personality of the Buddha, Ambapali, Angulimala, sincere friendship, the power of paritta chanting, our debt of gratitude to our parents and Nirvana.Did the Buddha condone or condemn meat eating ? There is abundant evidence that the Buddha, when he was a man of advanced years, denounced the practice of meat eating. That is the message for posterity from the Mahaparinirvana Sutra and the Lankavatara Sutra (a Mahayana text). Vegetarianism springs from the purified inner states of loving-kindness (Metta) and compassion (Karuna).Weeraperuma has beautifully restated in his own words the 41 verses of the Khaggavisanasutta wherein the Buddha stressed the importance of leading a solitary life --- "One must be alone, like the horn of a rhinoceros".Freed from all attachments, the highest happiness of Nirvana is attainable right here and now, in this very life itself.

Meditations to help you stop seeking inner peace—and start experiencing it instead. Nirvana is not to be found in the fulfillment of endless desires, the analysis of profound thoughts, or even hours, days, or years of meditative contemplation. In fact, it is the very act of seeking to obtain happiness, peace, and enlightenment that keeps them out of reach. Nirvana in a Nutshell offers 157 Zen meditations to help you discover what you might be doing (or not doing) in your life to sabotage your goal of reaching inner peace, your own personal paradise. But, as Scott Shaw explains, a desire for Nirvana is like any other desire—a cause of suffering. Let go of the quest and become that which you truly seek and you will find your own Nirvana.

This is a text which seeks sanity more than enlightenment, but it is aimed at that quest called nirvana / nirvanae. Like the title says, the writer is not the most enlightened guru or particularly adept in conceiving of the Ultimate of Ultimates. However, it is a modestly good attempt from someone who may have founded the Asceticurean religion, the writer of the Dimensional Encyclopedia, and inventor of perpetual motion machines. It would be easy to mistake Nathan for someone enlightened, and it is my hope because of that kind of honest mistake that this kind of book could prove useful. Because I have studied nirvana, and even once achieved a kind of samadhi for a short time as if through devious means. So, it is not completely without attainment. It is my hope someone with a clearer mind might make progress with this kind of tract. Perhaps I have a clouded mind but the way itself is not utterly clouded...
