The "Pearls of Wisdom" series is a collection of the sayings of the Tripitiaka Buddhist Master Hua published in the format of small gift books. These deceptively simple books contain universal principles on peace and happiness, understanding and compassion and other topics in an easy-to-read format accompanied by the actual Chinese text of the Master. Transcending the World discusses goodness and wisdom, suffering and debts, compassion and filiality, and more. Each page is tastefully illustrated with full color photos of lotus flowers. Excerpt, "Where does true wisdom come from? It comes from a pure heart." Dew Drops is the first book in this series. Small in size and low in price, these books contain profound ideas that will keep you contemplating for hours.
I was given this by a monk in the city of ten thousand Buddhas. Oh so much better than the Tao Te Ching. Clean and well connected to clever applications. I really enjoyed its wisdom. I can't wait to see what the ancient prophets wrote from China. This book, I felt, transmitted a sweet power and peace almost. Loved it.
