Acerca de este libro electrónico
Collected by the author over many years, these stories from the Yoga and Zen traditions are the flint and steel that strike a spark that lights up the mind with insights that one should ponder daily to bring to light ever deeper meaning. They may be similar in intent to Zen Koans – but they are rather different in content. TIn many Zen Koans someone says or does something extraordinarily inappropriate, which catches your attention just because it's extraordinary –but afterwards the light from them has to be applied to daily life. In contrast, the stories here are often ordinary incidents from ordinary lives (not that there aren't some extraordinary ones too!) that nevertheless open the mind's eye to the vast potential for realization and inspiration to be found in daily life.

Leggett spent several years in Japan, studying Aikido and Zen Buddhism. He became fluent in Japanese and developed a deep understanding of Japanese culture. He also became a respected martial artist, earning the rank of 6th dan in Aikido. In addition to his martial arts training, Leggett was also a prolific author.
