Being Without Self is based on lectures given during retreats worldwide, so they are inspiring, insightful and practical. This book provides an invaluable corrective to contemporary Buddhist and Zen practice, as well as a profound challenge to those of other faiths or no faith at all. Finally, a book on Zen Buddhism that speaks directly from –and points clearly to– the living source itself. "From the outside, what do these questions look like? That's right, like some metaphysical, convoluted, abstract, esoteric, new age hocus-pocus. I can assure you, however, from inside – when it is your own living, burning doubt – it is most simple.
