.SUMMARY Do you love your fast-paced technology-based existence but, at the same time, long for peace? There is a middle way between these extremes. November’s PalmPower Site of the Month article will help you find out where you can go for Zen-related resources for your Palm device.
.AUTHOR Heather McDaniel
PalmPower Magazine’s Site of the Month for November is a pretty interesting site. It’s hwy50zen.com, a.k.a. SageBush Monkey.
Harry Iwatsuki runs the site. He’s a Zen student who has been a Palm enthusiast for quite some time. He started out with a Pilot that upgraded to a PalmPilot that became a Palm III.
At the SageBush Monkey site, you’ll find a collection of Zen-related articles, books, and talks including Coming Down from the Zen Clouds by Stuart Lachs, The Blue Cliff Record by Hekigan Roku, and The Book of Equanimity by Shoyo Roku. When Harry started his site he felt it was important to include a library of books and articles that folks would be able to download to their Palm units.
Files have been converted to DOC format and then compressed into ZIP files for download. Before you try to become a Zen Master, you need to have AportisDoc, TealDoc, or a similar document file reader installed on your Palm device to read these files.
The site also has books for sale through Amazon.com and Powell’s Used Bookstore. Money raised from book sales related to associate programs with Powell’s Used Bookstore and Amazon.com is donated to a sabbatical fund for Harry’s teacher.
