716: PANKAJ MISHRA: The Buddha in His Time
The author of The End of Suffering: The Buddha in the World and the novel The Romantics gives an account of the social and political context in which the Buddha diagnosed and proposed a cure to human suffering. He describes the Buddha’s emphasis on the present moment as the proper focus of human concerns, and he contrasts it with the contemporary preoccupation with history and with the modern sense of Time.
