Read three chapters last night, Go, Death and Sex and Sin. The chapter on death was an interesting read, he talks about his interest in lots of different religions in his younger days. He then talks about Dogen's view of death which is that even inanimate objects are born, die and are reborn as something else. 'A stone is chipped off a mountain, it is born, then the elements wear it into sand and it becomes sand'

I've read 10 chapters of this book, but I'm reading out of sequence. Brad Warner seems to be a good Zen teacher, although he might not describe himself as one. He does call himself a Zen priest and master, but does not claim to be enlightened. His teacher is the long dead Dogen, a 12 th century Japanese Zen Monk. Brad Warner gets most of his inspiration from the Shobogenzo Dogen's 95 chapter book of Zen.
