Description

How does Buddhism view consciousness? This appraochable introduction considers the nature of the mind, asking questions about the search for the 'I' that gazes out on the world and experiences it. The author explores where experiences come from and where they go, compassion and control, and finally, what Buddhism believes consciousness can become.
