“At first glance, you may think you have tumbled across a collection of stories about kings and generals, bandits and monks, the lonely mountains and the hardships of poor farmers.
All of this is true. But what you have really found is a collection of inspiration and isdom by one of Korea's foremost Seon (Zen) masters.”

In this new collection of thirty-three stories, one of Korea's greatest Seon masters shows us our inherent potential and teaches us how to live with dignity and courage in any circumstances.

Appealing to both children and adults, these stories are drawn from the rich Buddhist tradition of Korea and reveal the unseen dimensions of our lives while
guiding the reader on the path of enlightenment.
