Rate this book
Le bouddhisme a imprégné toute la culture asiatique en intégrant de nombreux courants et influences. Aujourd''hui, de plus en plus d''occidentaux sont attirés par cette doctrine ouverte.Pour la plupart d''entre eux, il ne s''agit pas d''adhérer à une religion autre, mais dans un monde de plus en plus implacable de chercher des réponses à des problèmes existentiels à travers différentes pratiques : diverses écoles de yoga, méditation zen, qui impliquent une expérience individuelle et un travail sur soi-même, sans oublier les valeurs essentielles du bouddhisme : bonté, compassion, non-violence, tolérance, dans une démarche où s''entremêlent idéalisme et sagesse pratique.C''est ce que démontre Jane Hope en décrivant la vie du Bouddha et la richesse de ses enseignements, ainsi que leurs prolongements les plus récents en Europe et aux États-Unis, dans un livre éclairé par les illustrations exceptionnelles de Borin Van Loon
