Summary of Brad Warner's The Other Side of Nothing

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Zen Buddhism is a form of Buddhism that emphasizes meditation. It was started by a group of Buddhists who wanted to get back to the basics of what the Buddha had taught, dropping most of the dogmas and rituals.

#2 Zen Buddhism is not a set of beliefs and dogmas, but a way to learn to see what reality actually is beyond all beliefs and dogmas. We can’t see the true nature of reality, but we can discover it.

#3 The nature of time and reality hides the truth of universal oneness from us. But we can see it if we know how to look. The understanding of universal oneness is not like that. It’s not something we can own.

#4 Because you are everything and everyone in the universe, it makes no sense at all to act unethically. To act unethically is the same as punching yourself in the face. Anything unethical you do to someone or something else, you are really doing to yourself.
