| In Search of a Zen Si-Fu advocates a simple philosophy that points to a more joyful and enriched life. When stripped off all its complexities and pretences, Life’s journey then becomes less tedious and cumbersome. Coupled with large doses of humor, it is then viewed from its lighted perspective, thus pain and pleasure are seen as mere ferments which one dons and changes from time to time.
In Search of a Zen Si-FU is an attempt by the author to share with the readers the fruit of his encounters with the many monks of Asia, who have been his source of inspiration in the publication of this volume. Their wisdom and enlightened thoughts within these pages, without doubt, would encourage an appreciation of the ‘absurdity’ and humor that Life has to offer.
As laughter, like a gush of fresh air, is a gift which not only refreshes but also rejuvenates, it is the author’s hope and wish that the antics and adventures of the Zen Si-Fu and his sidekick, Grasshopper, would humor your spirit and point you towards your own path to insight and wisdom.
