"What's so original about this man?" asked a visitor, "All he gives you is a hash of stories, proverbs, and sayings from other masters."
Awoman disciple smiled. She once had a cook, she said, who made the most wonderful hash in the world.
"How on earth do you make it, my dear? You must give me the recipe."
The cook's face glowed with pride. She said, "Well, ma'am, I'll tell yer: beef's nothin'; pepper's nothin'; onion's nothin': but when I throws myself into the hash--that's what makes it what it is."

That's what you'll find in the second part to de Mello's One Minute Nonsense -- More One Minute Nonsense -- an assortment of stories, proverbs, and sayings from a master thrown together with a dash of Anthony de Mello. The master referred to is no one in particular--he is a Hindu guru, a Jewish rabbi, a Zen Roshi, a Taoist Sage, His is Jesus, Lao Tzu, and Socrates. The master's teaching is timeless. These anecdotes will not be easy to understand and should be read and pondered one at a time. Within the pages of More One Minute Nonsense you'll find wise, witty, yet puzzling responses to life's many questions.
