Download or read book Bring Me the Rhinoceros written by John Tarrant and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2008-11-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative and playful exploration of the Zen koan tradition that reveals how everyday paradoxes are an integral part of our spiritual journey Bring Me the Rhinoceros is an unusual guide to happiness and a can opener for your thinking. For fifteen hundred years, Zen koans have been passed down through generations of masters, usually in private encounters between teacher and student. This book deftly retells more than a dozen traditional koans, which are partly paradoxical questions dangerous to your beliefs and partly treasure boxes of ancient wisdom. Koans show that you don’t have to impress people or change into an improved, more polished version of yourself. Instead you can find happiness by unbuilding, unmaking, throwing overboard, and generally subverting unhappiness. Author and Zen teacher John Tarrant brings the heart of the koan tradition out into the open, reminding us that the old wisdom remains as vital as ever, a deep resource available to anyone in any place or time.
Download or read book Quotes to Inspire written by Elsinore Books and published by Elsinore Books. This book was released on 2020-04-13 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a carefully chosen quote for each day of the year, this book will be a constant source of inspiration, accompanying you through the depths of winter to starry summer nights, and on again to Christmas and the New Year. You’ll encounter lines from novels, short stories, essays, journals, and poems, as well as zen-like meditations, and classic aphorisms. The quotes come from more than a hundred different authors—including many of the world’s great literary figures. There are quotes to inspire courage: “The thing is—fear can’t hurt you any more than a dream” (William Golding); ignite creativity: “The Possible’s slow fuse is lit/ By the Imagination!” (Emily Dickinson); and enjoin us to action and goodness: “Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good” (Marcus Aurelius). You’ll meet more playful inspiration in quotes from Douglas Adams and Dr. Seuss. And we’ve also found room for the kind of mystical reflections that poets such as Wallace Stevens so excelled in composing. In these quotes you’ll find a wealth of wisdom distilled into a few choice words. But of course, it is not always the full picture—while the main aim of this collection is to offer day-by-day inspiration, we hope it will also be a springboard for discovering new writers. When you are inspired by a writer’s words, we encourage you to seek out the original work, and rediscover the quote in its natural environment. We have rigorously tracked down the source of each quote and attributed it accordingly. This book was designed to be as easily navigable as possible on your e-reader. To begin, you need only turn to the Contents page and follow the link to the current month. We wish you an inspirational voyage of discovery.

Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Best Illustrated Children's Book of 2015 In the early 1900s, Robert Miller, a.k.a. “Count Victor Lustig,” moved to Paris hoping to be an artist. A con artist, that is. He used his ingenious scams on unsuspecting marks all over the world, from the Czech Republic, to Atlantic ocean liners, and across America. Tricky Vic pulled off his most daring con in 1925, when he managed to "sell" the Eiffel Tower to one of the city’s most successful scrap metal dealers! Six weeks later, he tried to sell the Eiffel Tower all over again. Vic was never caught. For that particular scam, anyway. . . . Kids will love to read about Vic's thrilling life, and teachers will love the informational sidebars and back matter. Award-winner Greg Pizzoli’s humorous and vibrant graphic style of illustration mark a bold approach to picture book biography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you breathe in all the grace available to you and release everything that is outside of your control, you'll discover peace that surpasses your circumstances. All it takes is practice. If you feel overwhelmed with anxiety about the future, you're far from alone. For many of us, when we're not worrying about what is to come, we find ourselves wrestling with things from the past. Where does that leave us today? Morgan Harper Nichols has learned the answer to this question. She has examined stories from her own life and the lives of people around the world and noticed a common thread: we all long for peace. We're all seeking light and life. But these things don't happen passively. Peace Is a Practice invites you to become a peacemaker in your own life, starting right where you are, and in some of the most unexpected places. As these words and images inspire you to take daily steps toward peace, you'll uncover the key to: Embracing the beauty of the present Letting go of regret of the past and fear of the future Developing a path toward meaning and authenticity Approaching life's challenges with faith and a calm confidence Feeling peace even in the midst of uncertainty or difficult times In every moment, there is something as deep and boundless as a winding river waiting to be found--a true peace that flows, beckoning you to rest . . . and be still.
