Description: The radical challenge of Zen Buddhism is to drop all assumptions and prejudices and experience the truth directly. American Zen teacher Dennis Genpo Merzel brings new life to this ancient wisdom through his commentaries on a classic Chinese Zen scripture, "Verses on Faith-Mind".
Review Quotes: "Genpo fairly gushes with enthusiasm . . . The Eye Never Sleeps makes for lively reading and is an excellent addition to the expanding bookshelf on lay American practice."--Mountain Record
"These unpretentious, exhilarating commentaries on Sosan Zenj's 'Verses on the Faith Mind, ' a classic teaching of Zen's Golden Age in China, are a clear and refreshing illustration of how Zen teachings can illuminate our daily lives."--Peter Matthiessen
