Our Next Book Selection: A New Buddhist Path by David Loy
I usually only buy e-books these days but as this is available only in print I have allowed myself the small luxury of the printed word in my hands!
As I am new to treeleaf I hope this will be a means for me to get to know you all a little better. The New Zealand time zone is GMT+12 most of the year so please forgive me if I am "off pace" with the discussion at times.

I enjoy learning from everyone, I simply hope to be a friend along the way
Here in the UK, Treeleaf things often happen between 1am and 3am so I'm used to catching up with threads and zazenkai's the following day or over the weekend. The good news is lots of people do the same. When it comes to live talks and zazenkais, as soon as the video starts, it feels like we're together and I forget all about time differences.
I'll be ordering the book today so look forward to discussing it with everyone
Gassho,

This is a wonderful selection for the book club. I read through a few of the pages and found it to be quite interesting.
It's definitely a thumbs up
Thank you Jundo!

Amazon has a Kindle version, at least that's what I'm seeing--is it perhaps restricted from your region?

Please take this layman's words with a grain of salt.
While ordering my copy I was looking at some of his other books and one titled "The World is Made of Stories" that sounded interesting, so I bought it. When it arrived I flipped through it and thought that it looked familiar, and that would be because I had read it already about 10+ years ago. I even wrote some notes inside it! Anyway, I took the opportunity to read it again, and it has held up well over the years. He is an interesting author with a unique perspective, so I look forward to a book of his that I have not read yet
