Book excerpt: Through a collection of ten essays on Zen and one bonus essay on Hinduism, this work presents Buddhism in a fresh light. Jason Giannetti, a.k.a. Shouzan Dai Kou, writes in a clear style that is simultaneously philosophical and deeply personal. This is at once a brief introduction to Zen and also a deep meditation on the nature of the self. Clearly influenced by the modern, conversational style of Alan Watts while also drawing upon ancient texts of the East and West from the Upanishads to Plato, the Bible to Bodhidharma, these essays are eclectic and ecumenical.
