This book had my full attention until it talked about eating meat as if it was no problem. Until that point, I felt I had found a true teacher, someone who had stripped away all the mysticism and dogma of Buddhism, but everything collapsed when I realized this was yet another instance of the blind leading the blind. Ironic in a book whose main message is about seeing. There's no way one should trust a teacher who is so uneducated that they do not understand the most basic implications of eating meat. No one will reach enlightenment or awakening by following this book's path.
