Event book.
One gets the impression, reading his books and watching his lectures on You Tube, that one of his goals is to help people understand the world they live in, in order to impress on them the urgent need for radical change.
He finds it dangerous because it actually functions as capitalism's perfect ideological supplement.

In this book Zizek takes seriously the theme of the Penguin book series "Philosophy in Transit" in which this is the second volume. But enlightenment is the existential, subjective experience of the truth of the three marks of existence, namely that even though there is happiness and joy in life it is also full of dukkha (suffering that results basically from the kind of beings we are, the five aggregates; anatta (no soul, entities, including ourselves, are not what they are due to an eternal essence); and anicca (there is change, things do not remain the same).

If someone is hungry, you give them food, not because it's the right thing to do, but simply because they are hungry. This is vague. Free 2-day shipping on qualified orders over $35. Not a typical zizek book ; easy to read with clear arguments Other than the hoots, this book is great if you like the circularity of Continental fare. Slavoj Zizek

Event: Philosophy in Transit When one has achieved Nirvana, one is where he or she was before, but hopefully that experience can be brought to bear on how life is lived.
What he says in this book about the three events of psychoanalysis (real, symbolic and imaginary) is not clear, one would have to go to his other books to find clearer explanations, but the big problem I have with Event is the section on Buddhism.
If someone is hungry, you give them food, not because it's the right thing to do, but simply because they are hungry.
The self exists, but not as an essence, a fixed substance that survives the disintegration of the body.

I don't understand why of late Zizek feels the need to bash Buddhism, but one thing is clear, his understanding of it is superficial. Easy to read and rich in insight. Philosophy is an impulse buy at the Tate Britain. This book examines the new and highly-contested concept of Event.
Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. On page 68 Zizek accuses Buddhism of rejecting the Self as a free responsible agent, but he's attacking a straw man.
