Here is wisdom, plain and simple. Whereas a Zen Koan will challenge you to intuit its import and thus achieve enlightenment, these lines are forthright and free for the taking. Far from the philosophical adumbrations of Miguel de Unamuno, farther yet from cutesy ersatz wisdom ala Francois de la Rochefoucauld these daily lines present the perennial knowledge of the true, the good, the beautiful, the wisdom and the One. Salomon has confided that, if you invite wisdom, she will come to you. With that assurance, read and believe on these spiritual daily quotes for any moment of the year. Then sit yourself down quiet and alert, dismissing each thought or sensation as it arises and just wait. I suspect this is how the author day by day obtained her wisdom.
