Opis

'Zairian Buddhism' is book three of the Time Hero Chronicles. Unlike the first two books, which contain a fictional account of the collision of three human cultures from three different time periods, this book explores in depth the philosophy of mindfulness and compassion that governs the future pacifist society of the people of Zarnia as described in the first two books of this series; TIME LOVES A HERO and THE LEGACY. This book was created to respond to questions from readers intrigued by the nature of the Zairian culture. The book describes how such a society might actually be created and function in a real world. The author is a serious practitioner of Mahayana Buddhism and draws from those principles as he lays out how and why a secular version of a mindful, compassionate society should play a role in future human society as Albert Einstein predicted might happen. He also explores the idea that the continued viability of the human species may depend upon our ability to travel down some version of this more peaceful path if we desire to avoid the barriers that ego attachment and tribalism present for our survival.
