Title: No Ego
Review: While this book may lack any new insight into Zen, it is most intimate. Jakusho Kwong expresses his thoughts and beliefs of Zen with very little ego, which is different from many of the Zen books I have read. This book is definitely worth the read to gather the sense of intimacy one needs with Zen. While I have noticed that many Zen teachers "book style" is much different from their actual teaching style, this does not seem to be the case with Roshi Kwong. After listening to several of his podcasts, he seems to have a consistent teaching style--very laid back and very little of his ego intermixed in the teaching.I hope that Roshi Kwong writes another book. I will look forward to reading it. And if I am ever in the West Coast, I hope I can visit the Sangha at Sonoma Mountain.
