{"product_id":"the-boundless-open-sea-bradley-kaye-9780991045532","title":"The Boundless Open Sea: A Collection of Essays: Zen Buddhism and Critical Theory","description":"For the last forty years critical theories in Europe have been positing critiques of western society without fully embracing Buddhist traditions. In Dr. Kaye's opinion that is a terrible mistake, and he attempts a fusion between eastern and western social critique by focusing on concepts such as nothingness (Sunyata), instant enlightenment (Satori and Nirvana), bio-power, space-time and nihilism. The entire purpose of the book is to see if Buddhism and Critical Theory can create pathways out of actual oppressions due to 'clinging of mind' which Buddhism says is the cause of suffering (Dukkha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bradley Kaye\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 099104553X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780991045532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e No Frills Buffalo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Bradley Kaye","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48438088728831,"sku":"9780991045532","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b8fcf41d-4a2a-4da8-b8a8-26089256aa55.jpg?v=1777168731","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-boundless-open-sea-bradley-kaye-9780991045532","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
