First line

At the beginning let me say something about listening and about our relationship with each other.

From the rear cover

In this collection of talks, essays, interviews, and letters, Toni Packer presents a simple and original approach to spiritual growth that is free from religious authority, doctrine, symbolism and ceremony.

"This is some of the clearest, most grounded Buddhist-oriented teaching I have come across in a very long time."—Stephen Levine, author of A Gradual Awakening

"Toni shakes us out of the branches of our tree so we can see the root."—Charlotte Joko Beck, author of Everyday Zen

"This book is an essential corrective for the troubles of the world—many of which are discussed—and should be read by everyone."—Anne Bancroft, author of Weavers of Wisdom and Zen: Direct Pointing to Reality
