The Signifier Pointing at the Moon by Raul Moncayo
Although the foreground focus of this book is the relationship between Zen Buddhism and Lacanian psychoanalysis, its content matter will be examined and elucidated against the background of the relationship between modernity and postmodernity and within the larger context of the psychology of religion.
'Challenging and stimulating, opens fresh channels of experience as it clears old battlefieldsOne of the best books on the dialogue between Buddhism and psychoanalysis that I've read. The main interlocutors are Mahayana Buddhism's "no self" and Lacan's "empty subject", with intriguing insights on every page. Mesmerising and enlightening.'- Michael Eigen, Author, Kabbalah and Psychoanalysis
