What is the heart of the Dhamma? What did the Buddha discover beneath the Bodhi tree that brought his search to an end?
In Awakening – The End of Dukkha, Guy Eugène Dubois returns to the heart of the Buddha’s teaching—not through doctrines, traditions, or philosophical systems, but through a direct investigation of what the Buddha himself placed at its centre: dukkha, its arising, and the possibility of its complete cessation.
Drawing on three in-depth Dhamma talks, this contemplative work explores the meaning of awakening through the life of the Buddha, the Four Noble Truths, and the insight into not-self (anattā; anātman). Step by step, it reveals how craving, clinging, and becoming sustain dukkha, and how wisdom brings this movement to an end.
This is not a call to belief, but an invitation to inquiry. Not an exposition of Buddhist doctrine, but a return to the simplicity of direct seeing. A contemplative exploration for anyone willing to look beyond concepts and convictions, and discover for themselves the possibility of freedom.
