The essays contained in this volume include a number of substantial works: on the Yoga tradition, and how it has emerged in the modern age; on an exploration of the roots of the view of an absolutist god and the way this has shaped the development of Western civilisation; some reflections on what it is to be a human being in the world; an exploration of three significant figures: Freud, Plato, and Buddha so that they can be seen and compared as figures in a landscape today. There are also essays on Rudolf Steiner's Esotericism; the year 1948, that gave birth to the NHS and the State of Israel, and thoughts following the reading of 'The Essence of Nihilism' by Emmanuele Severino. Then there are some short pieces on: Buddhism; Death and Dying; the Buddha's Enlightenment in the Majjhima Nikaya and the Lalitavistara Sutra; Stanislav Grof's The Cosmic Game; the cosmopsychism of Itay Shani and on Greek Tragedy.
