The Zen Monkey and the Lotus Flower: 52 Stories to Relieve Stress, Stop Negative Thoughts, Find Happiness, and Live Your Best Life

Very good book about realizing some important life issues.

Absolutely love this book!!!! I read one each day and have learned so much from it. I can always somehow apply it to my life in some way. The stories are sooo good. and they’re the perfect length too. I wish this book had been longer ! I will be looking for similar ones now!

Something to read to remind me to not get so worked up over what I really have no control over. Short Zen stories to enlighten those seeking a more peaceful existence in the now. Easy reading and delightful drawings.

There are a number of spelling errors in this book, however the stories are good. Four stars for not proof-reading what I am assuming is a book reproduced by AI perhaps?

Love this book. Great for on the go ppl because the stories are short and to the point. I have already lent it out to two people and they love it too!

I couldn’t be more happy to be reading this book… It brings a lot of perspective to my life.

This book appears to be written by AI. The spine is blank. The back cover is a mediocre description along the lines of "Buddhist stories are important" with no endorsements. The front matter page is absent (no info about copyright dates, publication dates, first printings). The back pages just show the ISBN, printed in Oregon, and that "Tenpa Yeshe" (who is un-Google-able) is represented by "Christopher Ruben" with a Swiss mailing address and no other contact info.I tried to Google several of the stories, and nothing came up from the titles. Worse, there's some indication that words are just juxtaposed by frequency. For example: he first story is titled "Tenzin and the Master;" Tenzin is Aang's master in Avatar the Last Airbender.

It’s very childlike.Basic structure of nearly every story is:‘X’ individual is unhappy.‘Y’ points out a different way of thinking.‘X’ thanks ‘Y’ and is now happy.This structure, length and depth might be good for reading to small children before bed. 🤔
