Review
" 'The Great Way cannot be put into words,' wrote Lao Tzu. True enough. But folks who come to understand a way of life that makes happiness inevitable can't seem to help themselves from trying to communicate it to their friends. -- Zen writer/teacher Mark Canter, author of Ember From the Sun
Scott Morrison has that gift. With kindness, humor, and extraordinary clarity, he invites you to let go of self-centered ignorance and pretense, and give yourself freely and openly to the intimacy of this present moment." -- American Buddhist Review of Books

I wish more books were this concise and to the point. Very deep, very interesting, and worth every penny.

One of the best! Scott has a remarkable way of drawing your attention to what is really important, this moment, the only moment you truly have. It is amazing that such a small book can be so filled with wisdom. A book that I have read and enjoyed many times and look forward to reading and enjoying again.

I wish more books were this concise and to the point. Very deep, very interesting, and worth every penny. Not a single superfluous word in the entire book, every one of them counts.
June 2008: I was just looking over my past reviews and forgot about this one. I still have this gem of a book and am going to read it again today.
May 2010: I'm reading it again this morning. Every page is amazing and resounding with truth and love. It's a beautifully composed book that chops straight to the heart of life and existence.
