The Appearance of Things

Rate this book
This true story of a great travel adventure invites to the very real possibility of freedom, always available, always here and now. In 1974 a young American on a singular journey across Southeast Asia and India discovers, in the words of Kalu Rinpoche, "We live in illusion, the appearance of things. There is a reality. You are that reality. When you see this you realize you are nothing and being nothing, everything. That is all."Crossing Asia and the Middle East he goes on to Greece, but does such a vivid awakening also mean wisdom in the world? For as the Buddha is meant to have said, "Sometimes the closest you can get to the truth is in the knowing of what is not true."
