nirvana is samsara
@metis mentioned a book that piqued my interest so much that I have felt obliged to obtain a copy - "The Monk and the Philosopher: A Father and Son Discuss the Meaning of Life" by Jean-Francois Revel and Matthieu Ricard.
The monk (and ex-scientist) is the son, Ricard. The philosopher is the father, Revel.
I read a book by Ricard a good few years ago, but Revel is unknown to me.
I've not done a journal before, partly because I'm not sure what they are for. Feel free to contribute. Vast tracts are particularly welcome given I shall be probably persisting with my one-digit-typing-on-an-ipad-succinctness. I'm also a slow reader......
