The Victorian Plague is a satire on self-awareness, religion and philosophy. The title is an allegory to what eastern theology dubs the ego, its effect on the conditioning of the modern primate and civilization as it currently stands. It is the author's unfiltered zeitgeist and theory of reality. The author presents a deconstruction of our modern-day perception of what reality is, what it means to be alive and presents some subjective theories of the historical influences that led us to arriving at the awareness that we currently rest at.

Wir sind so sehr mit den Belangen des täglichen Lebens beschäftigt, dass wir uns selbst verloren haben. Dieses Hörbuch beschäftigt sich mit der Frage nach dem Sinn des Lebens. Denn diese ist letztlich die Frage nach unserem wahren Selbst. Es ist die Frage nach dem, wer und was wir im Grunde unseres Wesens wirklich sind. Mit klaren Worten veranschaulicht Zen-Meister Zensho W. Kopp eindrücklich, wie wir die trügerische Natur unserer Konzepte durchschauen können, so dass wir uns über unsere selbst geschaffenen Begrenzungen erheben.

Parenting is not always fun, but the dynamism of life gives us excitement, discovery, and pleasure. This book is a record of my experiences of parenting and practices of Zen. I owe them all to my children. They are gifts from God, irreplaceable treasures. The more serious I was with parenting, the deeper it became. When I faced parenting with a passion like a flame and at other times with calmness like ice, my attention became as sharp as a blade, and I could see some essence. That was a moment when a fire in my heart became a flame.

Jesus Christ was a Zen master? In at least one version of early Christian belief, he sure sounded like one. The Jesus narrative that eventually won out was passed on to future generations while the losers had their books burned and adherents imprisoned, tortured, or put to death. Talk about issues with freedom of religion! Luckily, an early Christian group called the “Gnostics”, in seeing their beloved books burned and adherents mistreated, buried their most important works in hopes of future discovery.

A well-known spiritual saying goes, "Enlightenment is an accident. But we can make ourselves more accident-prone." As an authentic American Zen takes shape, enlightenment continues to be misunderstood as a project to be completed, a goal to be achieved, or a prize to be awarded.

For fifteen hundred years, Zen koans have been passed down through generations of masters, usually in private encounters between teacher and student.

John Tarrant brings the heart of the koan tradition out into the open, reminding us that the old wisdom remains as vital as ever.

Little is known of the life of Zen master Huang-Po (Obaku in Japanese). He was born in Fuzhou, China, and died about 850 AD. His main teacher was Pai Chang (Hyakujo) (720 - 814). The main source for Huang-Po's teaching is the Treatise of the Essentials of the Transmission of the Mind, compiled by his student, Pei Xiu. Huang-Po's teaching is focused on the concept of Mind, the essence of intrinsic Buddahood. According to the master, the search for enlightenment was a useless distraction, as seeking for something inevitably separates the seeker from what is being sought.
