Zen Poetry

One Essence is a modern commentary on the nondual teachings of a classical Zen text.

It is also a collection of Zen wisdom and poetry, containing the 67 stanzas of the Hsin Hsin Ming (with multiple alternative translations), plus many other succinct spiritual verses from ancient and contemporary Zen sources.

This is a collection of poetry celebrating the darker side of love and other topics. The poems mix humor, idealism, and cynicism and strive to make you laugh think and feel.

Juliana Baldec's Zen Is Like You is an extremely blissful, mindful, simple, minimalistic, but yet effective and straight forward universal meditation poems known to mankind. The meditation moments are divided into 24 poems and classified from A to Z.

Zen. When it tells you to write, you write. When it tells you to feel, you feel. Time to call on the odds and stop the endless chatter in your head. Just look around us what can you see? What can you feel? We all have a story and poems are just a tiny frame, a picture, for the feelings living inside of us. We are all loafers from time to time. So I ask you, why not to be a Zen loafer and give it a listen, it will inspire you, it will command you to quieten your mind, and it will make your day to be Zen. Grab a copy, a cup of tea, and enjoy some easygoing wisdom.

Lo Zen non si può descrivere con le parole, lo zen si può solo vivere. Le storie zen sono un mezzo per cogliere, da un'ombra proiettata su un muro, qualcosa del fiore dello zen. Queste 54 storie sono state tradotte dalla collezione che John Suler ha fatto di storie zen o taoiste già pubblicate o che gli sono state raccontate o inviate sul suo sito "Zen Stories to tell your neighbors".
