Synopsis

ON THE THREE BOOKSin the Trilogy titled“PSYCHE & CONSCIOUSNESS (The Grand Scheme)” by Kim-Vũ***Book One “WESTERN THOUGHT in a Nutshell” is composed of 38 chapters in 38 pages is a concise summary of Western thought as expressed by its most prominent thinkers (philosophers, scientists and psychologists). Book Two “BUDDHIST TEACHINGS in a Nutshell” shows how Western thought closely reflects the teachings that Shakyamuni Buddha left to posterity more than two thousand five hundred years ago. This second book goes further in elaborating on the key concept of PSYCHE that has been mostly avoided in the continuous debate since Plato and Aristotle due to its undefinable content. All the states of Psyche are mentioned that assist in explaining the behavior of human beings resulting from the three root causes: Greed, Anger and Ignorance. Book Three “BUDDHIST FAITH AND WISDOM as a WAY OF LIFE” follows suit and concludes with a practical formula for living the good life on Earth.The aim is to make the reader aware of the things that seem so far-fetched at first sight, but turn out to be vital to the survival of humanity itself on closer study.The author hopes the books are presented in a friendly enough manner so that they catch the reader’s attention and entice him or her to ask for more.***EPILOGUE*** Before long, I shall be celebrating my eightieth birthday. I cannot find words to express my feelings of how lucky I am, being able to complete this work when most people my age might have developed dementia or are already struck with Alzheimer. Life has taught me that the first thing we need to learn is Gratitude. I am grateful first and foremost to my great teacher and healer the Fully Awake, His teachings, and His community of Saintly Disciples, for showing me the way to wisdom and liberation. Next, my parents have brought me into this world and enabled me to do what I do. Then comes all of humanity that has allowed me to live, learn, and make progress in the spiritual sense. Finally, last but not least, my Muse and the community of great people that I had the chance to come into contact with, directly and indirectly, have helped me develop ideas and put them into actions. Here is my offering to my fellow citizens of the world. I hope you glean something, however small, from this Part IV of the paltry book of one hundred and eight short chapters in one hundred and eight pages that are inter-related and yet separately self-sufficient in content. From the bottom of my heart, With humility and devotion, Enjoy!***
