Gratitude
Zoketsu reflects on gratitude as a natural way of living given the essential incredible fact that we and our world actually exist. " All my life I have been contemplating a question of Heidegger’s that has always struck me as strangely profound: why is there something, why not rather nothing?"

Buddhist Thought in India
Conze was a great scholar. His translations, especially of the Prajna literature (see Topic 9, Emptiness Teachings), remain standard after more than forty years. This book is his classical discussion of the basics of Buddhist psychology and philosophy. The reader must be patient with his quirky and supercilious style, which is great fun once you get used to it.
