Author and psychiatrist Paul Fleischman explores the interface between psychiatry, science and the timeless teaching of the Buddha in Karma and Chaos. Eight new and collected essays by Dr. Fleischman in this thoughtful work probe the heart of the Buddha's legacy to humanity: self-correction through meditation. Drawing on his many years of practice as a therapist, and as meditation student and teacher, he guides us with authority and humility into the essence of Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka, its psychological benefits and perils, and the inextricable foundation of moral actions.
