Just Grab The Dust Rag (Confession of a Deluded Zen Student Who Never Learned A Thing) is a personal journey through almost forty years of Zen practice in New York with a Japanese Zen Master. Filled with often humorous personal encounters with not only Zen Masters, but other students, friends and family, we watch a deluded Zen student's struggle for awareness and compassion. As she engages this simple, but rigorous Zen practice, we see her wonder, folly confusion, delusions, victories and defeats. We also watch her unnerving ability to keep going and determination to endure.

Simple and direct, the book is filled with both the longing for authentic living and the potholes we all fall into and hopefully climb out of again. The treasures and gifts of this beautiful practice are included, along with the inevitable dangers that must be worked through.
