5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and Simple!, 19 Jan 2003
By A Customer
This book is excellent. Despite being very small, it must be one of the best introductions to Buddhism I have seen.

It is explains the Buddhist view of the "Human condition": anicca (change), dukkha (suffering), and anatta (not-self) with a few sentences and humorous pictures, better than what some books do with lengthy chapters. It explains essential Buddhist teachings (dhamma), Zen concepts and other Buddhist wisdom in the same excellent manner.

Aswell as for the beginner or inquisitive, "Western" practitioners of Buddhism, will find this helpful in reminding them with ovine humour, how to follow the dhamma.

This book may also inspire readers to learn more, about more complex Buddhist teachings...

4.0 out of 5 stars An unsheepish source of enlightenment, 31 Oct 1999
This book is not for the sheepish but rather those who are not fussy about sources of enlightenment. It would appeal to those with a sense of humour based on "the far side.." The key messages and pearls of wisdom are nicely delivered through the medium of humour. My only criticism is that there was not more of it, but it did make me laugh. Not recommended for wooly thinkers though.This is a great bedside book with plenty of food for thought.

5.0 out of 5 stars A christian view point, 15 Sep 2006
By A. T. Knott (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A charming gentle book, humorous but profound. As a Christian I should perhaps take a stance against non biblical teaching, but I find a deeper wisdom hidden in this book, something which I have searched for in Chritianity but have found lacking in organised western religion. Will i give up my Christianity and become a Buddhist? No i think not but but this and other similar writings can only help in understanding our true spiritual nature.
Positive, gentle and humane an absolute must showing the the true nature of our spiritual side. Christian, Buddhist or not a recomended read
