Between the years 1958 and 1974 a series of books appeared that were attributed to the mysterious Wei Wu Wei. The Tenth Man, an essential work of this enigmatic sage, is being brought out in an new edition by Sentient Publications.

This book compiles the most lively expressions of nonduality, which are the understanding that existence is one undivided whole and that the daily distinctions we make within this unity are useful, but not ultimately true. The book conveys in a nonacademic style what nonduality itself is, including lively, challenging, diverse passages from the major traditions of Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, Christianity, Sufism, Judaism, Taoism, and Native American Tradition. You’ll also read about the nondual perspectives of psychotherapy, art, education, and the movie The Matrix. The c

Wei Wu Wei, an anonymous Westerner, joins Paul Reps, Alan Watts, and Philip Kapleau as one of the earliest and most profound interpreters of Zen Buddhism and Taoism. Well-read, educated at Oxford, and widely traveled, he brings a modern sensibility to the ancient texts. Posthumous Pieces, the penultimate work in his series of eight spiritual classics, was not published after his death. Instead, he states, the words themselves are posthumous, as they can only approximate the reality of life. These profound essays and epigrams are "tombstones, a record of living intuitions."
