I did not realize that Brad got the title for “There is no God and He is Always with You” from Joshu Sasaki. I bought and read the book (and loved it). But this was before I read some other works by students of Sasaki-roshi (including Shozan Jack Haubner and James Austin) and sat with a former student of Sasaki’s here in North Carolina. Great interview. Good to hear Brad’s voice for the first time after reading all but one (so far) of his books.
