Walking the Dream: Zen talks on the Shobogenzo
The Augusto I know has many manifestations. Martial Arts master and motorcyclist, Chinese medicine practitioner and indigenous peoples' activist, Zen roshi and jester, musician and writer. I think of a story told about the Buddha. Buddha and Ananda were walking. Buddha asked Ananda, "do you know the essence of my teaching?" Ananda, said, "The essence of your teaching is the Eightfold Path." "No, it is not," Buddha said. Surprised, Ananda tried again and again. Buddha said, "No, it is not." "Please reveal the ultimate truth to me. I will remember and pass it on to everyone who will listen." "I hereby trust the ultimate truth of my teaching to you. It is this: Be a friend. There is no greater attainment in this life or lives to come than to be a friend." During the twenty years I have known Augusto, through good times and bad, he has always been my friend. In this book of translations and commentaries, you will find he is your friend, too.

Developments in Australian Buddhism
This book examines the adaptation of Buddhism to the Australian sociocultural context. To gain insight into this process of cross-cultural adaptation, issues arising in the development of Diamond Sangha Zen Buddhist groups (one of the largest Zen lineages in the West) in Australia are contextualised within the broader framework of the adaptations of Buddhist teachings and practices in other Westernised countries. The book also examines the methodological approaches currently used for studying this process and suggests a synthesis of the approaches used for studying convert and ethnic Buddhist groups.
Love, Rōshi
Love, Roshi explores the relationship between Robert Baker Aitken (1917–2010), American Zen teacher and author, and his distant correspondents, individuals drawn to Zen teachings and practice through books. Aitken, founder of the Honolulu Diamond Sangha, promoted Zen to a wide audience in works such as Taking the Path of Zen and The Mind of Clover. Aitken's twentieth-century American Zen valued social justice and was compatible with work and family life. Helen J. Baroni makes use of Aitken's extensive correspondence preserved in an archive at the University of Hawaii to provide a window to view the beliefs and practices of the least-studied—and a difficult to study—segment of the Weste...
