Summary |
This is a radical, global and concise exploration of human consciousness and its propensity for inner and outer conflict. It explores consciousness and culture from the parallel perspectives of Western biology and Buddhist thought, showing how conflict co-evolves from primate survival drives with the evolution of language and abstract thinking which enables the dualistic mindset of absolute good versus absolute evil. |
