DESCRIPTION
The book 'The Buddha Eye' begins with a number of essays dealing with the nature of the self in the light of contemporary Buddhist thought and with the penetrating view of the relationships between self and other. The book also deals with the Kyoto School's conception of the structure of reality. The book is an effort to strengthen the many profound contacts in which East and West have recently become awakened to their complementarity.
