5.0 out of 5 stars It's Zen o'clock. Do you know where you are?, June 9, 2000

By A Customer

This little book is filled with the wisdom of the ancients, the thinking of the Zen masters of time. It is the kind of book that a seeker of truth can utilize for meditative purposes, or just open it and read a few passages to bring your mind back to the "observer" state where we do not judge, we do not make demands, we do not find fault. In this fast-paced world of noise, chaos, and responsibilities, this little gem of a book can return your mind to simplicity and serenity in just a few moments. Whether you are a newcomer to Zen research, or accomplished Zen master, the truth contained in this book will speak to your heart of hearts.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice little book, January 13, 2004

By	TheCafeWriter (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Although other reviews refer to ancient wisdom, this book is not a collection of quotes by famous Zen masters. The book is filled with aphorisms about time broken down into short chapters: Life, Death, Emotions, Now, Desire, Perfection, and Zazen that are pleasantly thought-provoking.
