Moon in the River the Bud Path to the Empty Mind

In The Moon in the River: The Bud Path to Empty Mind, Dr. Antonio Terrone has found a way to write about bud, the "e;Way of War,"e; avoiding the trap of over intellectualization. The poems in this collection are meant to guide a practitioner along the life-long path of bud, training to unify mind and body, thought and action. The writing style is straightforward and sincere; natural and without artifice; all admirable qualities in a practitioner of both bud and Zen. This is a collection that should be savored slowly, poem by poem, again and again over a long time.
