Money, Sex, War, Karma by David R Loy

What's Wrong with Sex?

How to Drive Your Karma
Consciousness Commodified
The Karma of Food
The Three Poisons, Institutionalized
Why We Love War

These are just some of the chapters in this brilliant book from David R. Loy.

In little time, Loy has become one of the most powerful advocates of the Buddhist worldview, explaining like no one else its ability to transform the sociopolitical landscape of the modern world.

In this, his most accessible work to date, he offers sharp and even shockingly clear presentations of oft-misunderstood Buddhist staples - the working of karma, the nature of self, the causes of trouble on both the individual and societal levels - and the real reasons behind our collective sense of never enough, whether it's time, money, sex, security.even war.

Loy's Buddhist Revolution is nothing less than a radical change in the ways we can approach our lives, our planet, the collective delusions that pervade our language, culture, and even our spirituality.

Money, Sex, War, Karma: Notes for a Buddhist Revolution, The Great Awakening: A Buddhist Social Theory, The World Is Composed of Stories; A Buddhist Solution to the Climate Emergency, and The Dharma of Dragons and Daemons, which was a finalist for the 2006 Mythopoeic Studies Award, are among David R.Loy's books. He is a trained teacher in the Sanbo Kyodan lineage of Japanese Buddhism and was the Besl Professor of Ethics/Religion and Society at Xavier University in Cincinnati. His essays have appeared in a range of scholarly periodicals as well as significant journals including Tikkun and Buddhist magazines like Tricycle, Turning Wheel, Shambhala Sun, and Buddhadharma. Cultural Dynamics, Worldviews, Contemporary Buddhism, Journal of Transpersonal Psychology, and World Fellowship of Buddhists Review are among the periodicals on which he serves on the editorial or advisory boards. He is also a member of the Buddhist Global Relief, Clear Vision Project, Zen Peacemakers, and Ernest Becker Foundation advisory boards. He resides in Boulder, Colorado.
