Book Information & Summary
Written by Kim Young-jong
"One gift from the Tibetan capital to the foreigner was the message to return from modern ideology to ancient wisdom. It was not a message asking us to retreat to the past but to look back to find a way out of the imminent destruction of the global community."
The author, who traveled in Central Asia to find the roots of our spiritual world and to find answers to the problems facing current civilization, suggests Tibet's way of life as a possible way out of the dilemmas of modern life. Through nature, sex, and civilization that he faced during his travel, the author began to see that the fundamental problem of Western ideology of reason is in trying to control nature.
By offering a new way of defining objectivity, the author allows us to look at those cultures around China independent of Chinese philosophy.
