We're here to disappear, therefore let's be as vivid & generous as we can. The intelligence & compassion behind this text is still alive.--Anne Waldman, The Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics</p><p><em>Scripture of the Golden Eternity</em> is Jack Kerouac's 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 Artaud-mad. He sought a recognition in philosophy of his early sense that his body participated in the universal forms of energy with a quality of exuberance--that 'serious exuberance' which he so accurately called jazz.--Eric Mottram, Introduction</p><p>Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) was a principal actor in the Beat Generation, a companion of Allen Ginsberg and Neal Cassady in that great adventure. His books include <em>On the Road</em>, <em>The Dharma Bums</em>, <em>Mexico City Blues</em>, <em>Lonesome Traveler</em>, <em>Visions of Cody</em>, <em>Pomes All Sizes</em> (City Lights), <em>Scattered Poems</em> (City Lights) and <em>The Scripture of the Golden Eternity</em> (City Lights).</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>These classic Kerouac meditations, Zen koans and prose poems express the poet's beatific quest for peace and joy through oneness with the universe.
