Zen Buddhism distinguishes itself by brilliant flashes of insight and its terseness of expression. The haiku verse form is a superb means of studying Zen modes of thought and expression, for its seventeen syllables impose a rigorous limitation that confines the poet to vital experience. Here haiku by Matsuo Basho (1644-94) — the greatest Japanese haiku poet — are translated by Robert Aitken, with commentary that provides a new and deeper understanding of Basho’s work than ever before. In presenting themes from the haiku and from Zen literature that open the doors both to the poems and to Zen itself, Aitken has produced the first book about the relationship between Zen and haiku. His readers are certain to find it invaluable for the remarkable revelations it offers.

Praktický sprievodca naplnením vlastných snov Úspech v živote môžeme definovať ako postupné dosahovanie cieľov, ktoré nám za to stoja. Úspech vrátane vytvárania bohatstva sa vždy považoval za náročný proces a často prevláda názor, že ho nemožno dosiahnuť inak než na úkor ostatných ľudí. To však nie je pravda. Sme duchovné bytosti a keď k úspechu zaujmeme duchovnejší postoj, keď spoznáme a začneme uplatňovať duchovné zákony, ktorými sa riadi vesmír a všetko, čo v ňom existuje, dokážeme do svojho života vniesť nielen úspech a hojnosť, ale aj radosť, lásku a pocit šťastia. V knihe autor zrozumiteľnou formou vysvetľuje, čo je a ako vo svojom živote uplatniť zákon: čistej potenciality, dávania, zákon karmy alebo príčiny a dôsledku, najmenšej snahy, zákon úmyslu a túžby, zákon odstupu a zmyslu života.
