Have owned multiple copies of this collection over the years, due to wearing them out. Purchased a copy for a friend going through some rough times, and he still uses it as a reference. One of my "go to" books when I'm having a bad day, or need some guidance... Highly recommended; read a passage and think about it for the day.Zen Flesh, Zen Bones Classic Edition: A Collection of Zen and Pre-Zen Writings
