Brahma Deva presented a golden Bodhi flower to Shakyamuni, asking him to teach the Dharma at Lingyin Mountain. Shakyamuni faced the assembly without uttering a word, merely gently holding the Bodhi flower and showing it around to the crowd. None of them understood his meaning, except for the great disciple Mahakasyapa, who smiled knowingly. Then Shakyamuni announced to the assembly: "The Buddhist Dharma contains the true eye of the Dharma, the wondrous mind of Nirvana, and the actual form of non-form. This subtle Dharma does not rely on words, but is transmitted outside the teachings. Such matters will henceforth be entrusted to Mahakasyapa for widespread dissemination."
Zen is a wisdom of life, the essence of dispelling delusion and realizing enlightenment, a door to opening the path to the liberation of the heart, helping us find the lost paradise within. This book selects 365 classic Zen cases, presented in the form of "one Zen a day," allowing you to grasp the unique charm of Zen thought through daily reading, enrich your inner self, and savor happiness.
