Synopsis:
New edition. Fearless and free-thinking, Nyogen Senzaki was the first great Buddhist teacher to immerse himself fully and without reservation in American life. He was raised in a Pure Land temple where his grandfather was abbot. He was ordained in a Soto Zen temple and then went to the Rinzai Zen temple Engaku-Ji, where he became a disciple of the great Zen master Soyen Shaku. Senzaki moved to the USA in 1905.

"The teachings and poems in this volume are as fresh, direct, and timeless as when they were first spoken." Melvin McLeod, Shambhala Sun.

"A precious offering from a pioneer of Zen in America. Reflecting the words of the great teachers, from Shakyamuni to his own Soyen Shaku, Nyogen's wonderful poems and commentaries deriving from his life long studies and his many decades in America sparkle with treasures small and large, each of them luminous with the immaculate humility of heart found in this true man-of-no-rank." Peter Mathiessen.

"The ven.Nyogen Senzaki was like an arrow of Dharma penetrating the West. His activity continues in this collection of his work, which will benefit all who read it." Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche.
