* Monks and Kings
Posted on December 30th, 2007 by jill. Filed under jill.
Synopsis
Combining history and modern life, this novel investigates the worlds of belief and knowledge, organised religion, friendship and love. Follow Dan’s adventures in the fantasy world of his mind, or is that the prophetic insight of his soul, and how he resolves his inner contradictions to find a network of friends, his true love, and to save a life. A story of courage and the battle with madness, how one individual can confront the evil of political society, and survive with his humanity intact. Dry, caustic, cynical, but ultimately optimistic, this book will make you laugh and ultimately restore your hope in the future.

Buddhist Quotes
Where there is water, fish dwell. Where there are woods, birds gather. On the mountain island of P’eng-lai there are many jewels, and on Mount Malaya sandalwood trees grow. There is gold in the mountains from which the river Li-shui flows. Now this place, too, is like that. It is the place of the cluster of blessings, where the Buddhas and bodhisattvas dwell.
