"A gathering of wonderful stories of lineage teachers and their students, intermingled with stories from Reb's life and practice, that enliven and extend our understanding of Zen practice."

—Shambhala Sun

". . . leads readers into a world view that combines quiet strength with disarming gentleness."

—New Age Retailer

". . .down to earth and imposingly allusive. . . . One appreciates the lifetime of practice and study that enables [Reb Anderson] to bring, so effortlessly, the wisdom of the masters into the . . . present."

—Inquiring Mind

"These collected dharma talks . . . carry the scent of incense and the spaciousness of a zendo. The dignity and incisiveness of Suzuki Roshi echo in the voice of his student."

—Yoga Journal

" . . . if you have decided that Zen is . . . for you, then Warm Smiles from Cold Mountains is . . . your book.

—RALPH

"Originally published in 1995 by the San Francisco Zen Center, this beautifully designed new edition organizes the material more logically and contains an additional lecture: a basic encouragement to new students on zen practice. Susan Moon's foreword takes us into the zendo where Reb Anderson delivered the talks from which the book is drawn. Although focused primarily on meditation practice, these talks also address living in the suffering world."

—Turning Wheel: Journal of the Buddhist Peace Fellowship

". . . inspirational and practical . . ."
