This collection of essays takes us on the most exciting and dangerous exploration of all: that of the body, mind and spirit in emptiness, to understand the wholeness of Being. In these accounts, the awakening of the body leads to nirvana, the Hindu equivalent of Zen satori. The writers have put into words what cannot be put into words, for to explain what nirvana or samadhi is in verbal, reflective terms is like, "the finger pointing at the moon". Nevertheless, they have succeeded in opening a " natural " experience to the dual mind that causes the anguish that comes from desire.(Adrian Cristobal Publisher, The Manila Times).
