My friends always teased me about the toilet on Hardcore Zen XD I love the sock monkey!

this was actually kind of a tough book because of its mundanity (i had to look that up to make sure it was a real word btw). zen is actually a very mundane thing. but trying to teach it through that context can make it hard for a lot of people to grasp the depth of it. you run the risk of making zen seem like mere philosophy. but i guess misunderstanding is always a risk you take when putting your words out into the world.

jesus brad, I find you really funny. lol. Third book?! I feel like the second JUST came out. Congrats!

Nice pitch Brad, but I already bought it =x

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

I love your sock monkey clips!

Also, read the book and it was a huge help. I'm going through a divorce myself and seeing how you lived through it, on top of everything else that was going on was a huge inspiration.

Thank you.

jesus christ! another book!?

who ever thought you could say so much about nothing...

[ZenBarracuda]

You're absolutely right.... and yet I still choose to read the damn things.

[vibrantlight1103]

fyi, i was being sarcastic. it was kind of a zen pun. just thought i'd mention it since sometimes sarcasm gets lost in type.

[ZenBarracuda]

I was being truthful. And your earlier remark evidently holds more truth than even you realise.

Your first two books are the best I've ever read, so you know I'm going to get this new one! Thank you for your contributions to Zen literature, Sock Monkey. If you have a recommended vendor, let me know. I'll start looking now.

I just got paid today and was thinking about getting a copy but I heard that this book was written by Genpo Roshi and now that I know it was written by the monkey I don't know if I'll be getting a copy ;)
