Zen Page-A-Day Calendar 2009 (Calendar)

Begin each day with a jolt of truth. Adapted from the bestselling book The Little Zen Companion, the Zen Calendar features hundreds of quotes, koans, parables, sutras, and poems—the surprising, the wise, the paradoxical—that will make you see in a way you didn't see before. The Zen of Ikkyu: The way of the wise is without knowledge...in the place of ten thousand sutras, one song. The Zen of Stevie Ray Vaughn: When I play from my mind I get in trouble. The Zen of Emily Dickinson and Albert Einstein, Wang Wei, Basho, and Hui-Hai: Your treasure house is within; it contains all you'll ever need.

David Schiller is an author of eclectic interests whose books include The Little Zen Companion, All-American Carioke, and The Runaway Beard. He lives in Montclair, New Jersey, with his wife, three children, and (only) three guitars.
