Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate
Brad Warner - Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate
This is less of a guide to buddhism and more a biographical note about Warner's life - how he handled the breakup of his marriage, deaths in his family and the fact that his mentor pushed the leadership of the organization to him, against the wishes of many senior members. In the process he makes some sensible insights that life isn't what you want - it never is - get's two girlfriends after getting one divorce and continues to play with his punk band.
Warner is as irreverent as ever - and about as irreverent as life. Stuff happens, deal with it. Recommended only for those with sense of humor.
