Item Description

 

Anita Feng has crafted in Sid a delightful jewel that captures both the classic story of the Buddha, as well a deeply personal and familiar reflection of the story in a contemporary retelling. The successful bidder will receive a signed copy.

Sid weaves the traditional tale of Siddhartha, the Buddha-to-be, with the story of Sid, an everyman who finds himself waking up amid the reality of work and family life in the modern world. Returning to the standard tale with careful consideration of the relationships in Buddha’s life—to his wife, parents, and child—Feng’s narrative embodies the Mahayana perspective of living one’s enlightenment in the world.

Beautifully told in poetic prose, Sid teaches that the key to the story of the Buddha’s life is that the story could be about any of us.

Includes beautiful black and white illustrations, created especially for this book.

Anita Feng is a Zen Master teaching at the Blue Heron Zen Community, Seattle, in the Korean lineage of Zen Master Seung Sahn. She is a writer and sculptor of original raku buddhas. She lives in Issaquah, Washington. Information about her books, sculpture, and Zen training can be found at Anita N. Feng.
