| 抄録 | From Publishers Weekly
There's a Zen story about a teacher who holds up his finger，then reminds his student to look beyond the finger itself，to what the finger is pointing at-the moon. That's what this book does：it transcends itself-and with outrageous style. Warner，an early-'80s hardcore punk musician，discovered Zen in college，moved to Japan to make B-grade monster movies, and eventually became a bona fide Zen master by formally receiving "dharma transmission." Yet true to his punk spirit，he relentlessly demands that all teaching，all beliefs, all authority-including his own-must be questioned. ("Why should you listen to me? Who the hell am I?... No one. No one at all.") By turns wickedly funny，profane，challenging and iconoclastic-but always with genuine kindness-Warner devotes chapters to some common Zen notions such as the oneness of reality ("Why Gene Simmons Is Not a Zen Master")，reincarnation ("In My Next Life I Want to Come Back as a Pair of Lucy Liu's Panties") and the vital importance of the present moment ("Eating a Tangerine is Real Enlightenment"). Yet this is no litany of Zen orthodoxy designed for study. By liberally sharing anecdotes from his own life as a down-and-out punk rocker and maker of monster movies, Warner constantly focuses on the importance of a direct experience of reality in all its rawness over adherence to any set of beliefs-even Zen ones. Entertaining，bold and refreshingly direct，this book is likely to change the way one experiences other books about Zen-and maybe even the way one experiences reality.
