ISBN:  9781614293330 (paperback) : 1614293333 (paperback) : Description:  xii, 197 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "The vivid story of a hippie, a carpenter, a Vietnam vet, an alcoholic, a marine engineer, and a great dad who battled his demons on the Buddhist path. From October 16, 1973, to August 17, 1974, Tim Testu walked all the way from San Francisco to Seattle, bowing his head to the ground every three steps. Tim Testu was one of the very first Americans to take ordination in Chinese Zen Buddhism. Touching Ground is simultaneously larger than life and entirely relatable; even as Tim finds his spiritual home with his teacher, the legendary Chan master Hsuan Hua, he nonetheless continues to struggle to overcome his addictions and his very human shortcomings. He died of leukemia in 1998 after packing ten lifetimes into 52 years."--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 294.39209 Heng Ju Ju Checked In Add Copy to MyList
