The Buddha-nature within is our true essence and our connection to all that is. The process of awakening to this inner nature can be difficult for many to incorporate into their busy lives. Writing in an accessible and down-to-earth manner, Sheldon Moore outlines a more accessible path for the modern seeker and connects it to Buddha Shakyamuni's core teachings. According to Moore, the great way is accessible in ordinary life and more immediately via our connection to nature. Remember Zen has a very inclusive outlook that shows that the process of our awakening is not limited to any religious connection but is rather related to our core nature as aspects of and representations of a single oneness. Still, our awakening has to be lived and Sheldon Moore highlights some of the ways humanity must change to become an enlightened species.
