Synopsis:
This new edition contains three new translations. The practice of "just sitting" is central to all Zen practice; it is the simplest yet most subtle form of meditation. This small volume brings together a wealth of writings, from Bodhidharma to Dogen to modern teachers, collecting the bones and marrow of centuries of Zen teachings.
"This is the single most comprehensive treasury of writings in English on the practice of shikantaza, and it is likely to remain the most important collection for many years to come. Often misunderstood, the practice of just sitting is authoritatively presented and carefully examined in two dozen essays by Chinese, Japanese, and American masters, along with an appendix of six seminal classic texts. This volume, spanning the centuries since Shakyamuni Buddha to the present day, will prove indispensible to meditators and scholars alike." John Daishin Buksbazen.
"At last a book that brings together writings on the subtlest and most fundamental Zen practice. Zen master John Daido Loori has gathered the essence of true meditation into this jewel of a book. We should not miss it." Joan Halifax.
"We have needed a book like this for a long, long time." Francis Dojun Cook. |
