Murphy's Rumi - James R Murphy - Bog

there are two sorts of zen adept. the first is someone who sits zazen for thirty years or so and finally achieves satori. the other is the zen fool who breaks out in laughter as a young person and never looks back. satori breaks out all over. murphy came to rumi in his late middle age self and was taken back to his wild youth. the most sacred of all american indian medicines is that of the holy clown. this then is a rubaiyat of the runaway murphy meeting the remnants of rumi in the 21st century.
