À propos de cet audio

 In the mid-1950s, Jack Kerouac, a lifelong Catholic, became fascinated withBuddhism, an interest that had a profound impact on his ideas of spirituality andlater found expression in books such as Mexico City Blues and The Dharma Bums.Originally written in 1955 and now published for the first time in book form, WakeUp is Kerouac’s retelling of the life of Prince Siddartha Gotama, who as a youngman abandoned his wealthy family and comfortable home for a lifelong searchfor Enlightenment. Distilled from a wide variety of canonical scriptures, Wake Upserves as both a penetrating account of the Buddha’s life and a concise primer onthe principal teachings of Buddhism.©2008 Jack Kerouac; ©2008 Penguin Audiobooks Biographies Bouddhisme Spiritualité Méditation Zen Buddhism
