5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Way Out,
This review is from: Dot to Dot Zen: A Primer of Buddhist Psychology (Paperback)
Enigmatic, intriguing, mysterious write. Book dissolves the discursive mind on 3 separate tracks, in parallel. Each page is a dose of confusion (visual koan), clarity (vignette), and direction (focusing target). I picked up the book at the Pittsburgh Carnegie Library, while researching for my next project. It cought my eye because the author's visual koans ("dots") exactly parallel my own meditative "geometry of observation" (a while back I developed a similar "dots and spaces" exercise (Present Perfect/Lotus Effect)). So, I was instantly thrilled to see the footsteps of a fellow mind as he seeks a state of no-mind. Perhaps, the best way to conceptualize this particularly body of work is that it's a kind of take on the Ox Herding pictures. Just as enigmatic and satisfying to a Zen-inoculated mind.
Pavel Somov, Ph.D., author of Present Perfect, Lotus Effect, and Eating the Moment |
