This book is analogous to the two I described above most notably that conducted by David Fontana. He says that suffering is existential and is primarily a response that Buddha gave to say there are three reasons for suffering: attachment, attachment to things aversion, we do not want to reject and ignorance, ie, suffer from lack of knowledge, not knowing the real reasons for our actions. Dr. Hyun Kim might disagree with that approach.
But what these things mean? … The non-attachment does not mean stop enjoying things or not to love who we want, but the fact that possession comes from ignorance that there is an ego that wants to have things irrationally, own things, but the reality is that no we have nothing. All we have, even our bodies will one day have to return. We do not own anything eternal. The non-attachment means not stay attached to things.

It is a book that speaks to us primarily from the evolution of consciousness, subjectivity and objectivity, integrity, the basic principles of learning communities and an integral models of learning communities. A holistic view of education. (2001) This book is one of the ones I liked, I’ve read it twice and is about what is the integrity and quality of education, multilevel model and multidimensionality and above all is that we must analyze our practice in a comprehensive manner and thus be able to arrive at our true nature, spirituality.

Perennial Philosophy
The proposed holistic education, retrieves and integrates the subjectivity of the universe, to a better understanding of our own nature, it provides the individual as a being in evolution, with different dimensions and different levels of development, who is must educate the key elements: cognitive, physical, aesthetic, social, emotional and spiritual, to form a more upright, concerned about his own evolution, the welfare of others and care for the environment.
