Stephen Batchelor, 2017
This work presents a secularized interpretation of the Buddha’s teachings, informed by a fresh reading of the tradition’s earliest texts. Stephen Batchelor, an internationally recognized author and teacher, articulates an ethical, contemplative, and philosophical vision of Buddhism for the contemporary age. Culminating decades of study across Tibetan, Zen, and Theravada traditions, the book examines the Buddha as a pragmatic ethicist. It envisions Buddhism as a dynamic culture of awakening, capable of reinvention and creative interaction with diverse societies.
