No Better Place

No Better Place is a penetrating and affecting presentation of the Buddha Dharma cast in a thoroughly Western idiom. Hoag's simple, clear prose invites entry in this very place, now. -Danan Henry Roshi Hoag Holmgren writes from the depths of his own understanding in this profound and simply expressed primer. These words will touch and inspire readers to surrender to a joyful experience of compassion for all. -Jiun Hosen, Osho Abbess, Bodhi Manda Zen Center While No Better Place may seem like a slight book, it's actually a wide-open doorway-into the essence of Zen! It says so much so succinctly and insightfully, that reading its brief chapters brings real Aha! delight. I look forward to sharing this book with my own Zen students. Many thanks to Hoag Holmgren! -Rafe Martin Sensei, award-winning author, founding teacher and spiritual director, Endless Path Zendo No Better Place is simple, clear, and beautifully written. I highly recommend it for anyone (new or experienced) interested in the path of Zen. This book captures the heart of this journey and beckons one to step in. -Peggy Metta Sheehan, Sensei, Zen Center of Denver
