Although Buddhism is a growing religion throughout the world, in particular, the practice of meditation is spreading in the West. The United States has a center for Buddhists in Hawaii and New York and also a Buddhist community has been established in California. (Hewitt, 13-14) But even closer to home for most is the practicing of Zen Buddhism on the basketball court by former Chicago Bulls and present Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson. In this essay I will discuss how Jackson has incorporated some of the practices of Zen Buddhism into his and the players of his teams lives and how it has been effective for the game and the lives of those involved.

    This section of this book was my favorite section of the book. I think that Alby should have been more of a leader in the being because he was the leader and he collapsed and gave up. If you are about to die or if some of your friends are about to die, I really think that is when you should be the strongest leader you could be and not just quit. When the walls weren't closing I got really scared for everyone in the Glade. I thought that Teresa had something to do with the ending because when she came I started not to trust her. I was also a little confused when Teresa said the she had brought the ending. I didn't know what that meant, but then realized that that means that they will have to escape really soon.

    The way this book ends is a strength to me. It makes the reader think about it their self not just read and find out. Reading this book I felt as if I was one of the jurors myself. The only down fall for that is I didn't have a say in anything but i had my options. The book not telling me if the boy was guilty or not makes me want to figure it all out. This ending as well as book was great. This ending was definitely a strength within the…
