Hardcover. Condition: gut. 1977. To Say What Can't Be Said As the other reviewer pointed out, this is difficult reading but well worth the trouble. The author wrote from understanding based on experience using Zen as a context but never succumbing to Zen cant. So people who think they "get" Zen won't get any advantage from that.… Dr. Benoit probably didn't want it reprinted because of the exercises he gave at the end which he later regretted. Ignore the exercises. There is of course a paradox. The title suggests a simple-minded, best-seller type self-help book and is a sentiment everyone understands. Nothing suggests the mental labor required within. The title of the previous book: "The Supreme Doctrine", at least warned you something unconventional and probably unsettling was going on inside. But if you try to "let go" over and over, always imagining it will be easy, and gradually begin to realize that you are not really free to, you may appreciate Benoit's efforts to examine the psychological situation. I did anyway. It occurred to me recently re-reading a section of this book that Dr. Benoit tried to do something the Chan masters never did: explain things. Although he said time and again in his last three books, you can't explain the inexplicable, and it's all way too big to be encompassed by our little words and concepts, the impulse to try was, apparently, irresistible. I'm very glad he wrote these books: this one, Supreme Doctrine and The Interior Realization, but I begin to understand why the masters restrained themselves to brief sermons, koan exercises and the short poems of Wang Wei and his colleagues.
