Publisher's Synopsis
"The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made." (Groucho Marx, no relation)
If you've long suspected that the sacred and the profane exist in close proximity, this book's for you.
What if the trials and vicissitudes of daily life could become the ground even for awakening? Can everyday neuroses actually become fuel for enlightenment?
Here you will find stories of two kinds-episodes from Marx's personal life and mini-essays on particular topics of interest. Some are Buddhist-themed; some have nothing to do with Buddhism. Nothing is meant to be sequential, either chronologically or thematically. For those things, we recommend a good book.
What if everything you're reading right now is just BS? "Who are you going to believe? Me or your own eyes?" (Groucho Marx)
