[Justin Howell]

A deep and clear commentary on the Heart Sutra and the Buddha's teaching on emptiness from a modern Tibetan (Nyingma) master who is a contemporary and able to present these sometimes esoteric notions in modern parlance. Highly recommended...

For me the words contained within do not live up to the title. Perhaps the author has tried to write a book about a concept that cannot be expressed. Emptiness is emptiness. The end.
