Sit Down And Shut Up
My Review
I hesitated for a couple of years before reading Sit Down And Shut Up by Brad Warner, I wasn't sure I was ready to once again take a ride on his roller coaster or run screaming to to another room as he painted yet another picture contrary to my personal understanding of Zen.

Warner's Zen is anything but watered down and...

Zen Book
A Zen Book is A Zen Book
Pick up a Zen book and you may see your action carries with it far more then a hint of expectation. In Zen teaching we are shown that approaching people, places and things with a set of preconceived assumptions or desires is the root of suffering.
