review 1: I liked this book. I did, then I didn't then I did. It wasn't what I expected but I adjusted my expectations and I enjoyed it. And quite frankly, I may have learned something, but more so, to me, I went with for the ride so to speak. I'm just a girl, trying to find my way through this world, trying to stay on the upside of emotions, trying to leave the past behind and appreciating today. I feel like Brian took me on this ride with him, showing me the sights of where peace can be found, but ultimately it's up to me to take what I've learned and apply it. If Brian became a cab driver again and decided to do a Dharma Road (Part Two), I'd read it. I'd be interested in what he's learned and applied and if our Spiritual Awakening is aligned. Namaste
review 2:
... moreThis is a great book for real, practical lessons in Zen philosophy and teachings. Whether you're a daily Zen practitioner, a novice or just a dabbler Brian Haycock, a Zen taxi cab driver, delivers you at a place well on your way to understanding Zen Buddhism. I particularly like how he couches each chapters lesson on a particular practice of Zen in very relatable stories. Although they are told from his perspective as a Austin, Texas cab driver they could easily relate to any one of us in whatever job or lifestyle we have. Whether you're heavily into Buddhism or Dharma (the teachings of Buddhism) or you're just looking for a little something different Dharma Road is well worth hailing this cab and taking the ride. Life is an amazing detour and you'll be surprised what you can discover along the way if you use a little Zen now and then. less
