ISBN:  9781611809114 Edition:  2020 ed. Description:  xix, 147 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  "There are many forms of liberation -- some that exist at the mercy of circumstance and others that can never be taken away. In this collection of stories, essays, poems, and letters from death-row inmate Jarvis Jay Masters, he explores the meaning of true freedom on his road to inner peace through Buddhist practice. He reveals the life of a young man surrounded by violence, his entanglement in the criminal justice system, and -- following an encounter with Tibetan Buddhist teacher Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche -- an unfolding commitment to nonviolence and peacemaking. At turns joyful, heartbreaking, frightening, and soaring with profound insight, Masters's story offers a vision of hope and the possibility of freedom in even the darkest of times."--Publisher.
