While the genius of Buddha diagnosed clearly the origin of human pathologies in the egocentric habits of mind, and prescribed the philosophical therapy essential for rehabilitating the awakened mind, Nagarjuna's spiritual and philosophical genius saw precisely how and why we humans remain entrapped within deep and chronic egocentric habits. He built on Buddha's teaching by innovating even more potent rational therapy for breaking the ego barrier and bringing to living reality and actualization the liberating teaching of Buddha. In this respect, Nagarjuna stands out in global history as an unprecedented teacher of the highest order whose spiritual and rational innovations and technology deserve supreme acknowledgment and appropriate recognition.

The point is that Buddha's global truths are not just for "Buddhists", any more than Nagarjuna's spiritual technology for breaking the egomind barrier is for a select few on the Buddhist path who are fortunate enough to receive it. This teaching is meant for all humans, in all walks of life, in all worldviews and perspectives, who are caught in the force fields of egomind and are suffering the consequences. That is why this book, The End of Suffering by Russell Targ and J.J. Hurtak is so vital for all readers at this time. The authors perform here a great service to humanity by making Nagarjuna's teaching on the end of suffering transparent and accessible to the general reader.

They make his profound innovations available and relevant to our lives in today's world. And readers who enter this work will find powerful tools and insights to bring to life which will empower them to get right to the source and roots of their existential suffering. This important book fills a void and builds a bridge that helps make Buddha's global teachings and Nagarjuna's spiritual technology on the end of suffering a living reality for all who are now suffering or wish to truly help end individual and collective suffering in our human condition. And the authors of this book should be applauded for a timely and courageous work that speaks so profoundly to our time of crisis and our troubled yet hopeful world.
