Zen Master Raven: Sayings and Doings of a Wise Bird
by
"This book represents a true example of western Buddhism. Reminiscent of and apparently influenced by Aesop’s fables, Native American animal stories, and the koan and stories of ancient Chinese Zen Masters and students it is truly unique. And very special. Written by one of the very first western Zen teachers.
