About This Item
Sheldon Press, London, 1994. Reprint. Softcover. Near Fine Condition. Therapists do not and cannot give answers. Explore the true nature of the therapeutic relationship, and realize that the guru is no Buddha. He is just another human struggling. Understanding the shape of your own personal ills, will lead you on your journey to recovery. Sheldon Kopp has a realistic approach to altering one's destiny and accepting the responsibility that grows with freedom. Dr. Kopp argues that there are no hidden meanings in life & that our lives have only the significance which we give to them. Thus 'Killing the Buddha on the Road' means destroying the hope that anything outside ourselves can be our master. With quotes from Zen, Hesse, Mythology, Legend, the Bible & the I Ching this is not entirely the antithesis of spirituality that the title might suggest. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 182 pages.
