ce sont là les multiples stratégies que nous propose en vain la culture contemporaine pour nous affranchir de la souffrance inhérente à l'existence. Or, tenter de fuir les émotions qui nous perturbent ne fait qu'accroître leur emprise. La souffrance nous rattrape toujours.

Il le fait avec d'autant plus de force qu'il combine les avancées les plus récentes de la psychanalyse en matière de traumatisme avec les enseignements ancestraux du bouddhisme. Car La vie est souffrance - la vie est dukkha , est le premier enseignement du Bouddha. " -- 4e de couv.
