NOTES
The single most striking aspect of this book is the depth of its overview of Indian, Chinese and Zen Buddhism as well as the elaborations on Taoism and Yogic practices. It is a delightful blend of both the author's scholastic knowledge, embellished with a brilliant glossary, defining Sanskrit and other terms, and his personal insights and stories stemming from his time pursuing Self-knowledge in Asia and India. Of special interest is the wide-ranging bibliography culled from the author's library, which could be used by Eastern Philosophy Departments to structure their degree programs
