Three traditions. One question.
The Buddha taught that mind is the forerunner of all things. Ashtavakra taught that you are already free. Guru Nanak taught that thinking alone cannot reach it.
This book moves through sixteen themes that all three traditions address: mind, suffering, the ego, impermanence, desire, attention, silence, breath, the present moment, non-doing, compassion, oneness, the teacher, liberation, joy, and death. Each chapter reads the original texts closely — in Pali, Sanskrit, and Gurmukhi — and lets the convergences and differences speak for themselves.
No tradition is subordinated to another. No synthesis is forced. Three distinct paths are described, each complete, each pointing in the same direction.
The texts are short. The practice is a lifetime.
"Mind is the forerunner of all things." (Dhp. 1)
