Synopsis

How do we address the environmental challenges of this new century? This book is based on the premise that when we become intimate with the world we live in, we naturally care for it as part of ourselves. In this new commentary to Zen Master Dogen's Mountains and Rivers Sutra, American Zen master John Daido Loori uses photography, prose, and poetry to illuminate this classic text with a freshness, relevance, and urgency appropriate to the ecological and moral imperatives of our time.
