Timothy Harada ティムハラダ: News ニュース

Timothy's Essay "A Buddhist Dialogue With Science" get's republished at www.fortunechildbooks.com - 4 June 2008

A Buddhist Dialogue With Science, newly updated with hyperlinks at http://www.fortunechildbooks.com/harada/buddhism-science-1.htm

Author John Maberry of "Waiting for Westmoreland" reviews Timothy's novel, Myth Shattering - 31 May 2008

"Under 30 or maybe 35? This may be a book for you on the coming of age progression of self-awareness into Buddhism. Why the age qualification? It's not that anyone older can't understand it, but it will resonate more with you if you can readily identify with the experiences of someone now in their 20s. Why Buddhism? Because it is a means to the development of the true self and an understanding of one's place in the universe. This is a good book for those in search of an entertaining look at becoming a buddhist with a Tobias Wolff, 'This Boy's Life' feel." -John Maberry, Author of "Waiting for Westmoreland."

Timothy Just Released His 3rd Volume of His Collected Writing From Soka University of America! - 27 March 2008

From the author of the Buddhist discovery novel, Myth Shattering, we now present Timothy Harada’s third volume of his Collected Writings From Soka University of America, “Questioning Orthodoxy.” This third volume is perhaps a mix of the first two volumes in that it questions both the political and philosophical views that are the anchors of Western “civilization.” As George Orwell wrote over a half century ago, “Orthodoxy means not thinking-not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness (1984).” Today thanks to our collective thoughtlessness, we all live in that world Orwell predicted in his novel, 1984, where “War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength.” The tragedy we all face today is perhaps even worse than Orwell could have predicted and it will only get worse if we don’t learn how to think for ourselves. The only hope that we are going to change the death strewn path we are all on is if we learn to rethink what we have been forced to think by our corporate media, our unelected officials and their many paid-for “think-tanks.” Though Timothy doesn’t claim to have any special ability to think outside the boob tube, he does offer us some hope that we all can think differently, even as painful as it may be to question our own conditioning.

Timothy will be in the hospital until Feb 14th - 31 January 2008
