These classic Kerouac meditations, zen koans and prose poems express the poets beatific quest for peace and joy through oneness with the universe."The Scripture of the Golden Eternity is fueled by Kerouacs discerning meditation on the nature of impermanence consciousness, subtle like the dharma it invokes. Were here to disappear, therefore lets be as vivid generous as we can. The intelligence compassion behind this text is still alive."Anne Waldman, The Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied PoeticsScripture of the Golden Eternity is Jack Kerouacs statement of confidence in his oneness with the universe of energy and form, a confidence to which his whole being swelled. His was not the search for the ecstasy of the mystic or psychedelic or the Artaudmad. He sought a recognition in philosophy of his early sense that his body participated in the universal forms of energy with a quality of exuberancethat serious exuberance which he so accurately called jazz."Eric Mottram, IntroductionJack Kerouac (19221969) was a principal actor in the Beat Generation, a companion of Allen Ginsberg and Neal Cassady in that great adventure.
