DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere's no doubt cats are a meaningful feature of Japanese life: from folklore to fashion, they've left a giant paw print on the culture. It's believed that felines first appeared in Japan with the arrival of Buddhism via China in around 552, when their main role was to stop vermin from damaging scriptures. But what can we learn from these philosophical felines? Surely they can teach us a thing or two, through the wisdom gleaned over the centuries residing in ancient temples and co-existing with artists, courtesans, monks and writers. The Zen of Cat is interwoven with stories and facts about cats, Japan and Zen philosophy. Carla Francis includes discussions with Japanese cat lovers, and invites reflection and 'mindful mewsings' on life through an A-Z of Japanese words to inspire. Cats are unburdened by worry. They maintain an enviable equilibrium. Maybe we can too?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Does a cat have a Buddha-nature?" "Mew!" "What is the sound of one can opening?" "Door open--stay in! Door close--go out!" "Fur is emptiness, & emptiness is fur." These are just a few of the Zen riddles that any cat solves with an insouciant flick of the tail as he pads down the path to Enlightenment. With chapters such as "Zen Fish, Zen Bones," "The Ten Sacred String-Chasing Pictures," "Nine Lives of Buddha," & "The Secret Transmission of Bodhipurrma," ZEN FOR CATS will delight all those who've survived the strict master-disciple relationship that cats use to lead us humans to the Truth. Deft ink-wash paintings capture the essence of cats in contemplation: practicing the "three pillars" of Za-Zen, Za-Snack, & Za-Nap; & reveal the best-kept secrets of the esoteric art of litter-box sand raking. Whether you are the Host or the Guest to a feline follower of the Way, you will find ZEN FOR CATS transcendent.
