Little Book of Zen Wisdom - John Baldock

The Little Book series aims at bringing within the reach of everyone beautiful texts that will stimulate the mind and inspire the heart; these miniature masterpieces will fit into the bag or pocket, or find a permanent place by the beside. Beautifully illustrated in two colour or full colour, each is a treasure chest of wisdom, and an inspiring introduction to its subject. Keep this little book in your pocket and carry it with you. Wherever you find yourself, in the noise of the city, in the peace of the countryside, or in the silence of your room, the wisdom it contains will inspire and comfort you. Stop talking, stop thinking, and there; is nothing you will not understand. Return to the Root and you will find the Meaning; Pursue the Light, and you will lose Its source...There is no need to seek Truth: only stop having views. - Seng-Ts'an/Sosan (D. 600)
