Warner's 2007 follow-up to Hardcore Zen and his first sustained engagement with Dōgen's Shōbōgenzō, read fascicle by fascicle through a punk-rock lens. The book inaugurates the line of Dōgen-paraphrase writing that culminates in the Don't Be a Jerk / It Came from Beyond Zen / Other Side of Nothing trilogy.
