Hardcore Zen: Punk Rock, Monster Movies and the Truth about Reality

by Brad Warner

Hardcore Zen: Punk Rock, Monster Movies and the Truth about Reality Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This is not the average Zen book full of feel-good stories designed to lull readers into beautiful dreams of peace and wonder--it's a book written in an open, accessible style with biting humor that spares no one.

Synopsis:

The author presents a series of fascinating stories culled from modern life, using them to illustrate the workings of Zen Buddhism for those who do not care about Zen but could nevertheless benefit from its wisdom. Original.

Synopsis:

Hardcore Zen is not your typical "Zen" book. Brad Warner, the young punk who grew up to be a Zen master, spares no one — just like Reality itself. This bold new approach to the Why of Zen Buddhism is as strongly grounded in the tradition of Zen as it is utterly revolutionary: Warner's voice is hilarious, and he calls on the wisdom of everyone from punk and pop culture icons to the Buddha himself to make sure his points come through loud and clear. The subtitle (and the cover!) say it all: there has never been a book like this one.
