55 - Listener's Questions: Enlightened Behavior, Openings, Chanting, Recommended Books

This episode answers four listener questions: 1) What is enlightened behavior - can someone be "awakened" and still do immoral or harmful things? 2) I had a profound experience in meditation – what now? 3) Is there a way for me to participate at my local Buddhist center if I don't want to engage in bowing or chanting? And 4) Do you have any recommendations for contemporary books on Buddhism or Zen?
