Description

Entertaining and engaging, this new follow-up to Wisdom's bestseller The Dharma of Star Wars stands on its own and will captivate a broad audience with the Star Wars story from a Buddhist perspective. Did you ever wonder why R2-D2 is: Always calm and cool under pressure, The key to the rebellion's survival, The one who never fails to save the day? Could it be because he's secretly a Zen master? Discover your inner R2--and the truth about who you really are! This delightful and illuminating romp unfolds in the form of a fictional dialogue between the author--a die-hard Star Wars devotee with a deep connection to Zen--and two cosplayers dressed as C-3PO and R2-D2 who insist on being called by their character names. Along the way, you'll come to see what everyone's favorite astromech can teach us about peace, happiness, and life's true meaning.
