Summary:

Unworldly Wise, Wei Wu Wei's eighth and final book, is an enlightened parable in the form of a conversation between an owl and a rabbit about God, love, and the way to be free from the traps of our minds. Using the further pseudonym O.O.O., the author was obviously having some fun with his readers. In this most accessible of his remarkable works on the conscious life, Wei Wu Wei shows us that wisdom and laugher go hand in hand.
