Yes, that is certainly under consideration. Shunryu Suzuki's ZMBM is one
of my favorite books to recommend to people, and I never tire of
rereading it. I hadn't thought of Shibayama's book, although I quite
like it and have used it before. Ven Sheng Yen is another of my favorite
writers and speakers, but I have not yet had a chance to read Hoofprint
of the Ox.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Rest assured that none of these suggestions have been made in vain.
