The Zen of Jesus Christ: Discerning The Kingdom of the Tao with The Dragon Eye of Zen. Presenting The Secret Sayings of the Gospel of Thomas, together with their Zen Equivalent and Commentary. These are the Secret Words Pronounced by the Living Jesus that Didimus Judas Thomas wrote down. This is a bold, fascinating, thought-provoking modern day interpretation of the Apocryphal Gospel of Thomas from the point of view of zen Buddhism. Key spiritual elements are identified, compared and commented upon. Once esoteric or misunderstood meanings become transparent through the lens of zen. For those unfamiliar with the tenets of zen, something of a 'crash course' is presented, always with a pertinent, illuminating connection to Jesus' sayings. The more one learns of zen, the more it becomes obvious that Jesus was indeed a zen Master. By the end of the book, it becomes clear: Jesus' Kingdom of Heaven is found to be identical to the Way of the Tao, a potent, powerful and potentially life-changing revelation. May we all reach enlightenment, with this body, in this lifetime, Here and Now.
