This book provides an opportunity to witness the humorous nature of the narcissistic ego. The author is abrupt and pokes fun at the absurdity of the ego. It's a nice simple read yet contains all the wisdom you ever need for an enlightened existence. However I would not recommend this work if your easily offended and tend to hold grudges. That ego would not enjoy being poked fun at such as within this book.
Slap in the face

If you have been wading about in the spiritual path, and got a thought into your head that one day you might be sitting under a tree, and all at once the Truth will be revealed, and you will be doused in holy light, and forever have a saintly smile etched on your face, and will commune with the spirit, and recognise your true self, your face before your parents begot you...Then this book is indeed for you, coz it will slap you back into your senses. To quote from the book "You are your own worst enemy. Ram Tzu is your friend, so he will have to kill you to save you from yourself."
One of my favorites

This book, without a doubt is one of my favorite books. Funny and delightful, it bares open the obvious stupidity of trying to be something you're not.I've read and reread the book many times. Each time it's new and wonderful. Highly recommended, unless you have areas of your life that are sacrosanct and you don't want to be free.

If you are serious in your pursuit of enlightenment you are in for a rough ride. Ram Tzu does not coddle. His truths are self evident to some and heresy even blaspheme to others. The pages of this book are filled with incredibly funny and intelligent paradox, that is all the more stunning because it is delivered at the most dizzying heights of mankind's most cherished beliefs. Ram Tzu is a Zen Master's Master. And like a Zen Master of old if the Student is blinded by his own flame the Master smacks him, on occasion. Ram Tzu laughs at you... But only when you need laughing at. An example form the book: "Ram Tzu knows this...You indulge in self mprovement... and...All you have to show for it is an improved self." If this makes you mad you missed the point. Losing the self is the point not improving it. This book is not for the pius, those that take themeselves too seriously. To the truly enlightened, nothing is sacred. Ram Tzu is truly Enlightened.
