How did I come to know about Zen Masters Hui Hai & Huang Po? via mobile FB recommendation
I was going through face book updates and posts . Serendipity . One blog was recommended . It was about ' Krishnamurtis and Rajagopals' written by someone on this blog
http://worldwidehappiness.blogspot.in
and then they wrote a lot about Rosalyind and Krishnamurti affair . It was a LONG post . I have read it patiently.
Then, there were comments on the dicussion forum . Curious, I scrolled further down to read them .
Then , one ' anonymous' reader mentioned about these 2 Zen masters . Hui Hai and Huang Po . He/she said, reading 100 pages of these masters and following their advice is much better than reading 10,000 pages of JK !
When I read that on mobile, my laptop was on , charging. So, I wrote down those names in the note pad, one of my good habits, in organized online reading .
Then, did the google search, after crazily blogging some management tips.
SERENDIPITY again . Some google search pages informed me about the life, time and teachings of these 2 masters and 2 links took me to Amazon pages . 2 books written by these 2 masters ( translated by western authors ) are very much available in India, at affordable price of below Rs 1,000.-.
Buy and read them both, in this life time. Less of screen time and more of book time, you fool !
