World peace, internal peace

I bought this book for the umpteenth time as I have given them all away. One by one, to friends, seekers and clients. I wanted to reread it in preparation for an upcoming retreat.

You'll never snub a panhandler again

This book is a masterpiece because Bernie Glassman's life and work is a masterpiece. His activism is truly awe-inspiring.This book will touch your heart and make you think deeply about life, your own comfortable life with heat and light and computers, versus the dirty, cold, unsafe life on the streets.There are just too many things to praise about this book that I can't write them all. Suffice it to say that all of it is a jewel, a gem, a lotus flower blooming from the mud of everyday life.Buy it, read it, let it seep into you!

A Peacemaker's Manual

For anyone interested in making peace both within and without, or who is interested in combining spiritual practice with social action, Roshi Glassman's book is a "must read." He does a fine job of articulating and describing the spititual foundations of peacemaking in a very clear and straightforward manner. I found them both moving and helpful in my own search for a peacemaking path.

Bearing Witness

Glassman Roshi stands out as one of the foremost leaders in engaged spiritual practice. His sense of vision, personal journey and earth-level insight is clearly tangible in this recent publication. Glassman shares his heartfelt experience while also clearly reflecting the diversity of the Zen Peacemaker Order.

Wonderful American Zen

Bernie Glassman offers a vision of Zen practice which is fresh and American. I have found Bearing Witness inspiring and empowering, not just at first reading but day after day.
