A Heart Blown Open

Meer over het boek

The narrative follows Zen master Jun Po Denis Kelly Roshi, whose tumultuous life began in an abusive home and led him into the counterculture of the 1960s as a prominent LSD manufacturer. After years on the run and a stint in federal prison, he spent six years in a Zen monastery, ultimately achieving recognition as a Zen master in his fifties. His experiences culminate in the creation of Mondo Zen, a unique form of Buddhism shaped by his profound personal journey through adversity and transformation.
