Summary: Vajra, a diamond blade...
Comment: It might be a little more immediate to get hit in the head with certain shamanic herbs...but if language can do damage to the matrix's sleep, this book should do it for you. Personally, I thought the author's brilliant elucidation of the prajnaparamita sutras, in just a few lines, was worth selling your field to buy.
If you're here, this book is probably for you. If you get it and it isn't, hey...what have you lost? lol Be warned: "Heavy Deconstruction."

Summary: Clever
Comment: Wei Wu Wei was very clever.
The Tenth Man (like the superior Ask the Awakened) is a collection of short essays, poetry and dialogues expressing Wei Wu Wei's profound understanding of Ch'an, Taoist and Advaita philosophies.
The writing is abstruse, uncompromising and very challenging at times.
For sure there is insight to be found. But too often the cleverness gets in the way.

Summary: Few can point you in the right direction better
Comment: The author's cryptic, aphoristic style in short expositions and dialogues of not longer than several pages at a time will challenge and then stop the mind. I can only describe the state induced as one of tension...a feeling that there is just a thin veil separating one from Profound Understanding that, while thin, is very difficult to penetrate. However, with perseverence, intuition may reveal to you what words can never convey. But words can point you in the right direction and few authors I have come across do this as skillfully. I regard all his books as classics that are at the top of my shelf, so to speak. Fans of Douglas Harding, Tony Parsons, zen, advaita, Ramana Maharshi, taoism will probably agree with me. But if they don't, that's fine too.
