The Idea Of Nirvana (Pali Nibbana) Is Alluring But Elusive For Nonspecialists And Specialists Alike. Offering His Own Interpretation Of Key Texts, Steven Collins Explains The Idea In A New, Accessible Way As A Concept, As An Image (Metaphor), And As An Element In The Process Of Narrating Both Linear And Cyclical Time. Exploring Nirvana From Literary And Philosophical Perspectives, He Argues That It Has A Specific Role: To Provide 'The Sense Of An Ending' In Both The Systematic And The Narrative Thought Of The Pali Imaginaire. Translations From A Number Of Texts, Including Some Dealing With Past And Future Buddhas, Enable The Reader To Access Source Material Directly. This Book Will Be Essential Reading For Students Of Buddhism, But Will Also Have Much To Teach Anyone Concerned With Asia And Its Religions, Or Indeed Anyone With An Interest In The Ideas Of Eternal Life Or Timelessness.
