The Gateless Gate: 49 Zen Koans (Annotated Edition)
“The Gateless Gate: 49 Zen Koans†is one of the most known collections of Zen stories. It was compiled in the early XIII century by the Chinese Zen master Wumen Hui-k’ai (1183–1260, also known as Mumon Ekai). Each koan is accompanied by a commentary and some verses.
