Zen Radicals, Rebels, and Reformers

More about the book

Innovative Zen masters, often disguised as drifters or beggars, challenge conventional spirituality through their unorthodox behavior. This book explores the lives of these "boat-rockers" and rebels from 8th-century China to contemporary America, illustrating how their actions redefine the radical Buddhist movement. Their stories emphasize that spiritual awakening is a rebellious act against the foundations of suffering, highlighting the interconnectedness of personal growth and societal change.
