Its clear, reader-friendly elucidation of such important Zen Scriptures as The Diamond Sutra, The Prajna Paramita Sutra and The Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch opened the door for Kerouac's personal immersion into daily Zen practice, and through his many Buddhist-influenced novels and other writings, for the enlightenment of generations of \"Beatnik's,\" Hippies and serious students of the Dharma to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis \u003ci\u003eNew Paradigm Press\u003c\/i\u003e edition has been carefully edited by author and thirty year Zen practitioner Lawrence W.
