Description
The book Cat Zen is interwoven with stories and facts about cats, Japan, and Zen philosophy. What can we learn from cats, these philosophical beasts? They can certainly impart some of their wisdom accumulated over centuries, during which they lived in ancient temples or coexisted with artists, courtesans, monks, or writers. Cats are an integral part of life in Japan: from folklore to fashion, they have left significant paw prints in the culture. Carla Francis includes Japanese cat lovers in the discussion and calls for reflection and "mindful meowing" about life through slogans composed of Japanese words from A to Z. Cats are not burdened by worries like humans; they live in an enviable inner balance. Can we achieve it too?
