Description:
A raucous, irreverent look into the Buddhist and Martial Arts worlds

Can we be martial arts practitioners and Buddhists at the same time? Can these practices actually complement each other, in mindfulness? How do we reconcile Buddhist concepts like non-violence with a fighting practice like judo, karate or jiu jitsu? Long-standing martial arts instructor and meditator Jeff Eisenberg addresses these and other questions in his own inimitable style, employing autobiographical anecdotes, along with martial arts fighting strategies, koan and sutra teachings, and Buddhist folk stories. Fighting Buddha outlines why the true test of a martial artists skill and of a Buddhists application of mindfulness is during a situation that is the least conducive for it-usually not inside the Dojo or Zendo. Challenging the belief that fighting martial arts styles are not conducive to a meditative practice, the book discusses the difference between violence and the use of force as it relates to the Buddhas teaching of cause no harm, exploring the common misunderstanding that meditative moments are exclusive to only select activities. Further topics are the struggles of beginning training and practice, the importance of identifying goals, choosing a teacher and training in support of these goals. And, far from being the often-perceived ending, Jeff concludes that enlightenment and the black belt are really only a beginning.

Good looking, quality control needs improvement
Color: Acacia
The shelves are fine but one of the mounting blocks was glued on backwards which meant the holes for countersinking the mounting screwed ended up on the wrong side. It was easy to drill new countersinks so no big deal but a star is docked for quality control. They are cheap and looks good so I can't complain much.

Good looking shelves
Color: Acacia
The shelves look great and are exactly what was needed for the application chosen. It wasn’t an issue for me, but the mounting hardware was missing. I always use my own wall anchors so it didn’t affect me, but it may have others.
