SynopsisFew spiritual practices are more intriguing or elusive than those of Zen Judaism," says David M. Bader in the foreword to Zen Judaism . "This growing movement offers a unique way to follow in the footsteps of the Buddha, ideally without gaining quite so much weight." These nearly 100 sacred teachings are capable "of bringing about an enlightenment experience so pure, so elevating, and so intense, you could plotz." For you, some samples- To know the Buddha is the highest attainment. Second highest is to go to the same doctor as the Buddha. Be here now. Be someplace else later. Is that so complicated? There is no escaping Karma. In a previous life, you never called, you never wrote, you never visited. And whose fault was that? If there is no self, whose arthritis is this? Be patient and achieve all things. Be impatient and achieve all things faster., Few spiritual practices are more intriguing or elusive than those of Zen Judaism," says David M.

  • A Gem of a Book!

    This little gem of a book is a wonderful gift to share with your friends! Over the years I have seen Bader’s clever haiku poems and funny insights circulating in emails without crediting the author, David Bader. I always reply by crediting the author by name. Recently, I decided to also re-buy the book to enjoy and to share with friends. My last copy was never returned to me, so beware! Best buy a few of them as gifts! No, I don’t know Mr. Bader, just love his wit! posts by replying

  • Funny if you're from New York City.

    As I've worked in New York City for several years and been exposed to Yiddishkeit, I found this book very entertaining. There were a couple of passages that I laughed out loud until I almost got chest pains. If you read each passage as if it were a serious Buddhist saying instead of looking for humor at every line you will get your share of laughter at the unexpected end of that passage where it takes a turn. It's a small book which takes little time to finish.
