Customer Reviews

A fantastic basic pocket guide to Zen.

I admit to loving miniature books. It is amazing how much information can be included in these mini-books. I have read this small 78 page volume many times over the years because it explains clearly and succinctly the basic concept of Zen. This small text covers the roots of Zen, Zen by number, Zen riddles, koans, Zen art and other informative facts about Zen. In conclusion, this small volume provides a taste of Zen and may persuade you to seek out further study of this philosophy. Rating: 5 stars. Joseph J.
