Essentially, these are more Zen stories; however, I chose to focus on Budai. Once I got started the stories started morphing into other things. It will be interesting to see where they go - see also the Five Songs page.
Eventually, I hope to re-do all of the Netsuke Zen stories in this digital format - though the styles vary through more and less realistic styles.

This was the first one where I deviated from the tradition; however, I had been reading Osho and Krishnamurti and read Osho's comments about his feelings toward Krishnamurti. Things just developed from there - I think the two masters would have approved of this little tale

This is the first and most traditional of the set.
Most of my understanding of zen comes from Osho's books and
Zen Training by Katsuki Sekida.
All of the Netsuke series come from reading traditional zen tales.
