Nectar from Heaven

Albert Low used the stories and inspirational pieces in this collection during talks that he gave over many years spent as a Zen teacher. Each story has a point to make that would be difficult to spell out in specific detail, but which has the potential to change the way we see the world. Stories and inspirational texts have always been used in this way. To see what he means, one only has to think of the parables of Jesus, the fables of Lafontaine and Aesop, the stories about the exploits of Mullah Nassr Eddin, the stories of Jalaluddin Rumi, and the famous Mahabharata of which the Bhagavad Gita forms a part.
