Resumen del Editor

Can you be an atheist and still believe in God?

Can you be a true believer and still doubt?

Can Zen give us a way past our constant fighting about God?

Brad Warner was initially interested in Buddhism because he wanted to find God, but Buddhism is usually thought of as godless. In the three decades since Warner began studying Zen, he has grappled with paradoxical questions about God and managed to come up with some answers. In this fascinating search for a way beyond the usual arguments between fundamentalists and skeptics, Warner offers a profoundly engaging and idiosyncratic take on the ineffable power of the "ground of all being."

Great title!

The title about sums it up. Things often don't make sense, so how do we sort things out? Is there a God? what is God? Who knows, but this is Mr. Warner's opinion on the subject, not Buddhist teachings, but rather his own thoughts. It didn't answer any questions for me, but I found it very interesting to follow his thinking. The book is well written and I enjoyed his "at home" narration, background noises and all.

A worthy backup to Harcore Zen

A worthy follow up to his other works, which I read in paperback. Worth it. Very engaging.

Great<br />reading by the author.

Great perspectives and stories. It's like sitting down and listening to a good friend. Enjoyed while on my daily walk.

Brad has a way with Dharma.

Great presentation of complex subject. Combines insight, stories and a keen quirky sense of humor.

Uncontroversially Thorough

The subject matter of Brad Warner's book "There Is No God and He Is Always with You" could be extremely controversial. But Warner has thought through much of the opinions expressed and has explained his points in a way that, even if the reader doesn't agree, they should be able to recognize his position as well dictated and holding equal merit to their own.

I don't know if I agree with all of Warner's arguments, but his perspective is fun, entertaining and addictive enough to keep me listening.

There is something to be greatly respected by the fact that Warner records and narrates his own books. Even with the production flaws that life brings, I find this choice to provide a powerful connection to the man behind the words that just reading or a different narrator would lack.

On the right track, worth everyone's​ attention

You have to listen fit the right reasons, mind open. Check your preconceptions you'll enjoy.

Thought provoking

I loved it. Brad speaks my language. I highly recommend this book to everyone who wonders about "God "

On My Top 5 Zen Books!

I loved this book! I've done zen for 20 years, but had some very meaningful experiences in Christianity. This book really helped me make sense of that!

God and Brad Warner...What's not to like.

I much prefer listening to Brad Warner read his books than read them myself. He's just so good at it. Actually I like to follow alone with the book in case i want to stop and re-read a particular section. This book, like his others on Dogan, Zen, Zazen and God, as well as on life
In general can be dense and complicated, as these subjects are. But his humor and down to earth approach and interpretation of complex philosophies and teachings make these teachings come alive for me. Do not be deceived by what some might describe as Brad's goofiness. This is a pretty smart guy, who as far as I'm concerned, gets "it". So treat yourself to this, or one other of Brad's audio books, because he's fun and certainly gives you food for thought.
You might even learn something.

good God

thank you for you insight. I like the Buddha stuff, and the good stuff. I get this is not a punk rock book but I liked that stuff too, from before. keep up the good work.
