by StephenMitchell (Author)
This text centres on the narrator's spiritual growth. It tells of his quest for enlightenment and his search for the eternal questions - what God is, what love is, how we should live and how we can respond to evil. The book gives a profound and humourous insight into a wide variety of spiritual practices ranging from a broccoli smoking Jewish community through to a formidable tradition of Zen teachers. Tracing its lineage to the reverent irreverence of the Zen masters and the dialogues of Plato, it meets the reader at the crossroads of humour and profound wisdom.
