Zen Buddhism conveys its profound and powerful truths through epigram, parable and brief, enigmatic and often amusing stories of the masters. In addition to 101 ZEN STORIES, this volume contains THE GATELESS GATE, a collection of koans or puzzles that students use to attune their minds to enlightenment, and 10 BULLS, an illustrated account of a bull-hunt which symbolizes the ascending stages of awareness.
