My words would not do justice to this book. All I can say is that it has been one of the most down to earth books I have red about Zen. Would recommend it to people that practice and to those that don't ... yet. Rating: - Beginners Mind Anyone who has spent time reading and thinking about this stuff will know the term beginners mind. For those of you who do not and for those of you who do.... it is the idea that when you believe yourself to be an expert or to "know" you may be in deeper trouble then when you started. You have through gaining certain experiences closed your mind to the experience of the open mind of a beginner. I am writing this because I take this book as someone would take a pill to get rid of a headache. ...

I do not sit regularly, but I do practice reflection on a daily basis (using a journal), and with regular writing forays. Perhaps the most useful lesson here is Beck's discussion of the "witness" experience, becoming an observer of moment-by-moment thoughts, emotions and bodily reactions. It is the closest thing to Zen in my experience, from what I can gather... so I am quite thankful for that... and for this book! Rating: - Great book Very practical and accessible. I've read a lot of zen books and I like the simplicity and yet substantive approach to the subject. It's a really good read. Rating: - A Modern look at Zen, Wonderful!! This very well written & appropriate for today's world is easy to read & very meaningful!! I bought a half dozen more for Christmas/Chanukah presents. It's been around a while, now I know why, can't wait to read it again & see what else can be gleaned now, & now, & now, etc. ;-) It also has meaning to Martial Artists who exist in the moment!
