Hand wash cold

the long version

Miller uses daily household chores, laundry, kitchen, yard, to demonstrate timeless Buddhist principles. The skillful weaving of personal anecdotes, a few Zen terms, and acute insights sometimes addressing the reader directly, distinguish this book from others in the genre. Miller, a Zen priest and student of the late Maezumi Roshi, argues for the faultless wisdom of following instructions when going about the mundane activities that form the substance of everyday life.
