This book took a while for me to finish. It initially felt so dry to read and rather to difficult to relate on experiential level. Until I found another book to read this in conjunction, which is Master Sheng Yen's ZEN - Tiada Penderitaan, the translated edition of There is No Suffering. The two makes a good and complementary reading up to a point. Bhikkhu Buddhadasa has a rare and profound view on the dependent origination and how we should practice towards liberation. In the end, this book offers a good and complete review of the theory as well as direction towards practice, which is rather a rare find.

This is the book to go when one is feeling down, needs a bit of reminder, or some warm sunshine in the room. It is very soothing and comforting. The language is simple and the stories are down to earth. However, if one is looking for deep philosophical stuffs, I don't think there will be much of it here.....

This is a recommended book to read for some deeper understanding on Heart Sutra, especially the concept of emptiness, which is often mistaken as nihilsm. However, this is a translated version. Across the texts there were terms that were interesting translated terms, which makes me wonder of the original terms being used in the original version. I also wonder how the reading experience would have been should I be reading the original version since there seem to be quite numerous bold highlight as well as footnotes by the translator/editor. Overall, I would still recommend this for reference in understanding Heart Sutra.
