Seinen wichtigsten Lehren treu bleibend, tritt der Buddhismus hier zugleich in einen fruchtbaren Dialog mit der Moderne - über individuelles und gemeinschaftliches Leiden und Erwache...

La no-dualidad comienza a ser una constante en los debates filosóficos y religiosos. Pero es una noción compleja y mal comprendida. De forma lúcida, didáctica y a la vez profunda, el profesor Loy nos ofrece un análisis de las diferentes filosofías de la no-dualidad inherentes al Vedanta hinduista, el budismo Mahayana y el taoísmo. Loy extrae de todo ello lo que él denomina ¿una doctrina esencial¿ de la no-dualidad.
