By: Robert Aitken“In this, his final work, American senior Zen Roshi Robert Aitken lovingly ties together two threads, Zen practice and haiku.” —Spirituality & Health
Known to many as the study of quiet stillness and introspection, Zen Buddhism distinguishes itself through brilliant flashes of insight and its terseness of expression. In River of Heaven these concepts and pillars lend themselves to an exploration of Haiku, one of the most delicate and interpretive poetic forms in the world. The haiku verse form, with its rigid structure and organic description is a superb means of studying Zen modes of thought because its seventeen syllables impose a limitation that confines the poet to vital experience. In Haiku as in Buddhism, the silences are as expressive as the words.
In this volume, American Senior Zen Roshi Robert Aitken gives new insight into Haiku by poetic masters Basho, Issa, Buson, and Shiki. In presenting themes from Haiku and from Zen literature, Aitken illuminates the relationship between the two. Readers are certain to find this an invaluable and enjoyable experience for the remarkable revelation it offers.
“I am grateful for Robert Aitken’s enthusiastic sharing of poems in The River of Heaven, together with his rich personal and cultural perspectives. It is a book where the author joyfully calls each of us as readers to share in the transcendent joys of haiku.” —Juxtapositions
“Aitken mines the meanings in these brief gems about nature, impermanence, travel, awareness, silence, beauty, being present, the turn of the seasons, and much more.” —Spirituality & Practice

Reef safe sunscreen
Style: Sensitive Skin, Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2)
I bought this for Hawaii as a reef safe option. I have sensitive skin so I have to be careful about what sunscreens I buy - this worked great and did not irritate my skin. It's a bit thick but it's an SPF 50 so that's not a surprise. A bottle lasted an entire week in Hawaii. A great product for sensitive skin!

Really good!
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My daughter (11 yrs) used to hate putting any sunscreens on her face as she'd find them stikcy. But this one is working very well for her and she's now using it without any concerns for stickiness. I'd buy again.

Very good purchase
Size: 0.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I purchased the Banana Boat Sport Kids Sunscreen Stick SPF 50 (0.5 oz) for my child, and it has been very convenient to use.
The stick format makes application quick and mess-free, which is especially helpful when applying sunscreen on a busy child. It glides on smoothly and provides good coverage without feeling overly greasy or heavy on the skin.
I like that it is travel-sized, making it easy to carry in a bag or keep on hand for outdoor activities, school events, or vacations. The SPF 50 protection gives me peace of mind for extended time in the sun.
It also seems gentle on the skin, and my child tolerates it well without irritation. The compact size makes it great for reapplying throughout the day as needed.
Overall, this is a very practical and effective sunscreen option for kids. I would definitely recommend it for parents looking for an easy, portable, and reliable sun protection product.
