In this book the author attempts to open out the discussion between Buddhist thought & psychotherapy & the new findings of neuroscience in the context of our search for wellbeing. Buddhist teachings are concerned with a way of living & engage most resonantly with practice rather than with theory thus the conversation between Buddhism & psychotherapy has been a particularly fruitful one for as long as dialogue has existed between Buddhist & Western disciplines. In search of a way to happiness Buddha set out to explore our experience & in so doing presented what may well be called the earliest psychology an experiential exploration of subjectivity. In the West for much of the twentieth century psychology (science) & psychotherapy (practice) had little to say to one another. Despite Sigmund Freuds early wish to consider psychoanalysis as a science academic psychology had scant time for what it considered at best an art form while psychotherapy found little of interest in psychologys lack of concern with subjective experience. All this has changed since the growth of the interdisciplinary fields of cognitive science neuroscience & consciousness studies & the development of new technology. Today ideas arising from Buddhism & from contemporary cognitive science may encourage us to engage anew with our experience our embodiment & our relationships.
