See a preview and order HERE Reviews "Frank Roberts has crafted a beautiful and engaging book on a very difficult Buddhist concept. The idea of "nothingness" has confounded Western Buddhist scholars ever since it was first introduced. Early translators mistakenly assumed it was a nihilistic and negative idea. This book shows that real nothingness is everywhere we look if we rise above our own ideas and thoughts. Nice pictures too!" ---Brad Warner, author of Hardcore Zen and Sit Down and Shut Up. "Frank's combination of art and insight are evidence that his Zen practice is mature and that he knows the difference between the finger and the moon that it points to. Roberts has done a masterful job of taking an often difficult and misunderstood aspect of Zen and made it available to everyone in a simple and beautiful way. Two Dozen Donuts will have a permanent spot on my coffee table." ---Rev. Randy Nowell (Yin De Shakya) Openings: Pictures in Passing is a photographic essay on old doors and windows across the Midwest. See a preview and order options HERE Openings was produced and published because I had not been back to Indiana for along time and I realized on my trip that I had forgotten how beautiful the Midwest was. My interest, however, centered quickly on old doors and windows that seemed to be always in my path as I travelled through the small towns and industrial sections of small cities on my way to and from my home in Arizona. Although Openings was published mainly for my and my family's enjoyment, I have had so much good response about the book that I have decided to place it on the sale block at lulu.com.
