"Discusses basic Buddhist teachings thoroughly, with a delightful ease and lightness expressive of the emptiness teachings themselves, and features a wealth of charmingly told Korean folk stories and old Buddhist tales that illustrate, with humor and magical realism, the potentially abstract and philosophical teaching of the sutra."
– Shambhala Sun

"Wonderful and welcome. Dosung Yoo brings a keenly-felt contemplative understanding of the core text and strong, clear voice. He is as well-grounded in classical Mahayana teachings as in the folk narratives of Korean Buddhism. A valuable contribution."
