Zen 2007 Calendar

Thoughts that make you stop in your tracks. Words that unlock doors in the mind. Sudden clarity, as energizing as coffee in the morning. Filled with quotes, koans, parables, and poems adapted from the 476,000-copy bestseller The Little Zen Companion, the ZEN CALENDAR features a year of paradox, wisdom, and profound insight. The Zen of Basho and the Buddha. The Zen of the Dalai Lama, Charlie Parker, Thoreau, and Shakespeare. The Zen of ancient sages and modern philosophers, poets, mystics, and irascible Chinese masters: A monk asked Yun-Men, “What surpasses the Buddhas, surpasses the Patriarchs?” Yun-Men replied: “Buns.”
