Description: Discover the tranquil wisdom of Chomei's 13th-century masterpiece, Hojoki, as it unveils the beauty of imperfection and the serenity of a simple life amidst the chaos of existence.

Review Quotes: "The impermanence of the world is a thread that weaves its way through Hojoki. Three other Buddhist themes are used to group the 14 short chapters in Matthew's translation: Suffering, Detachment and Transcendence." --John Dougill: "Writers in Kyoto," author of Zen Gardens and Temples of Kyoto, Japan's World Heritage Sites, and more.
