The Heart Attack Sūtra

Post by PlayfulKindness »

Hey,
Have any of you read Brunnhölzl's The Heart Attack Sūtra?
I'm about to start it.
I'm interested to hear what you thought of it.

I am reading it now. It's a wonderful book, particularly as an introduction to his longer translations. It's very clearly written and engaging.
