Synopsis
An old Eastern proverb says that when
a wise person points to the moon, the foolish watches
the finger, but the finger and the moon belong to two
different worlds, to two different realities as the zen
buddhism teaches us. In the present book the author gathers
60 of these stories, commenting them and revealing the
extraordinary wisdom that they contain. In the purest
zen tradition, these stories, Haikus and Koans, are intend
to cause surprise, to provoke and above all to help awakening
the disciple able to forget the finger and directly admire
the beauty of the moon.
