The Eye Never Sleeps
Categories: Books, Religion & Spirituality, Buddhism

The radical challenge of Zen Buddhism is to drop all assumptions and prejudices and experience the truth directly. American Zen teacher Dennis Genpo Merzel brings new life to this ancient wisdom through his commentaries on a classic Chinese Zen scripture, "Verses on Faith-Mind," by the Third Patriarch of Zen, Sosan Zenji. The author strikes to the heart of Zen with clarity and force, expressing in modern terms, to an American audience, the essential wisdom and compassion of Sosan Zenji&apos;s famous poem. Full of colorful Zen lore and personal anecdotes from Dennis Genpo Merzel&apos;s life, these talks impart the Buddha&apos;s teaching directly and intimately, illuminating in simple words the timeless questions and problems of day-to-day life.
