There is no god and he is always with you

a search for God in odd places

By Brad Warner

Brad Warner, a Soto Zen priest with an unconventional approach, tackles one of humanity's most enduring questions in this thought-provoking exploration of divinity and spiritual practice. Rather than choosing sides in the heated God-versus-atheism debate that dominates contemporary discourse, Warner offers a refreshingly different perspective that transcends traditional religious boundaries.

Drawing from his extensive Zen training and global travels to spiritually significant locations including Israel, Mexico, and Northern Ireland, Warner presents Buddhism as a unique pathway to understanding the divine without the constraints of organized religion. His journey began with a personal quest to find God through Zen practice, despite Buddhism's reputation as a godless tradition.

Through chapters that challenge conventional thinking about belief and existence, Warner demonstrates how Buddhist principles can illuminate our relationship with what he calls the "ground of all being." His intimate and conversational writing style makes complex spiritual concepts accessible while maintaining the depth serious seekers require.

The book's title itself reflects Warner's characteristically unconventional approach, originating from his imperfect recollection of a Zen teaching. This honest acknowledgment of human fallibility runs throughout his work, creating an authentic dialogue about spirituality that avoids both religious dogma and militant atheism.

Warner invites readers to consider how ancient wisdom traditions might offer fresh insights into age-old questions about meaning, purpose, and the nature of ultimate reality.
