What They're Saying
Critics Review
“A timely and spiritually wise book. Glassman is a very profound and skilled teacher who manages to illuminate some very difficult Zen subjects.“— Spirituality and Health
“Glassman’s style and thinking are like thick, polished glass: clear, compact, and strong. Marrying metaphor, illustration, and abstraction, he reaches into the heart of many essential concepts, reminding us firmly that, among other things, ‘we don’t practice to become enlightened … we practice because we are enlightened.’“—Publishers Weekly
“A watershed book for Zen students, a good study companion and a trustworthy guide.“—Zoketsu Norman Fisher, founding teacher of the Everyday Zen Foundation
