Nothing Holy about It: The Zen of Being Just Who You Are

Nothing Holy about It: The Zen of Being Just Who You Are

According to legend, when the founder of Zen Buddhism was asked about the main principle of his holy teaching, he replied that there was â€œnothing holy about it!â€ Now, a millennium and a half later, Tim Burkett reveals how and why the wisdom of nonholiness is the key to a joyful heart. You donâ€™t need to go looking for something sacredâ€”the happiness you seek is right where you are. In this book, a concise summary of Zen teachings unfolds within the ordinary comedies and tragedies of everyday life, beginning with the delightful nonholiness Burkett experienced in the presence of his original teacher, Shunyru Suzuki.
