A rare and vivid narrative of a Buddhist nun's training and spiritual awakening. In this engagingly written account, Martine Batchelor relays the challenges a new ordinand faces in adapting to Buddhist monastic life: the spicy food, the rigorous daily schedule, the distinctive clothes and undergarments, and the cultural misunderstandings inevitable between a French woman and her Korean colleagues. She reveals as well the genuine pleasures that derive from solitude, meditative training, and communion with the deeply religious - whom the Buddhists call good friends. Batchelor has also recorded the oral history/autobiography of her teacher, the eminent nun Son'gyong Sunim, leader of the Zen meditation hall at Naewonsa. It is a profoundly moving, often light-hearted story that offers insight into the challenges facing a woman on the path to enlightenment at the beginning of the twentieth century. Original English translations of eleven of Son'gyong Sunim's poems on Buddhist themes make a graceful and thought-provoking coda to the two women's narratives. be surprised by the degree of spiritual equality and authority enjoyed by nuns in Korea. While American writings on Buddhism increasingly emphasize the therapeutic, self-help, and comforting aspects of Buddhist thought, Batchelor's text offers a bracing and timely reminder of the strict discipline required in traditional Buddhism.Binding Type: Hardcover

Need base to use it
The bottles are well made and cute. There is plenty of glitter in them for whatever you need. HOWEVER- the glitter does not stick to your clothing or skin very well. I recommend some form of base to allow it to stick to you better. I applied lotion to my arms and neck, and that seemed to do the trick.

Goes on plentiful, but doesn't stay.
I enjoyed this glitter when I first applied it, but it falls off even if you use lotion or something to stick it to your face. It would be great to use as pixi dust, but not for facial glitter. I use a more dense glitter for my face to make sure it shows up. I use it in my hair, and that stays for a while, but it takes a lot to show up/ The containers are cute though and don't get clogged. There is no scent to it, which I am happy about because I did not want scent.

Color: Silver + 1 Refill Bottle
My only issue is, it come off fast. Other than that, this is exactly what I was looking for. I recommend putting on some type of lotion or maybe even some Vaseline given something to stick to.

Fun, easy and quality
These little bottles are adorable. The glitter comes out without a mess. If using on hair for a devotation use hair glue to make the design. Otherwise, the simple sweet lite glitter touch finishes a style nicely.
