Ken will talk about An Arrow to the Heart, his new commentary on the Heart Sutra. For more information on An Arrow to the Heart, or to buy a copy, please click here.

“Spoken in a voice that is neither pious nor academic, hectoring nor detached, An Arrow to the Heart is a fine example of the new wave in contemporary Buddhist writing. In its quietly relentless way, this pithy and unorthodox commentary to the Heart Sutra leaves you with nowhere to stand but right here.”
— Stephen Batchelor, author of Buddhism Without Beliefs
