Zen Light

The Denkoroku, or "Record of Transmitting the Light", contains the enlightenment stories of the earliest Zen ancestors. In Zen Light, the author comments on this Buddhist classic, which he studied as part of his own advanced Zen training. He brings the varied experiences of his life and his studies in Catholicism and Quaker practice to the teachings of Zen Buddhism, making these commentaries at once off-beat, refreshing, and revealing.
