Synopsis:
New edition. After three decades, Taizan Maezumi and Bernie Glassman's On Zen Practice remains the essential Zen primer, offering insight into every aspect of training. Hazy Moon of Enlightenment, the second volume of their classic On Zen Practice series, takes readers to the next level.

The first two parts of the book explore Buddhism's concepts of enlightenment and delusion: the nature of enlightenment, what it means to describe it as "sudden" or "gradual", and the nature of delusion and how to distinguish it from reality. Part three looks at "enlightenment in action" and the attainment of serenity and tranquility. The final part of the book includes the fascinating and vivid account of An Experience of Enlightenment by Flora Courtois, with Zen master Hakuun Yasutani's commentary on his meeting with her and on her inspiring first experience of kensho, or awakening.

Includes: The Sound of Enlightenment; Sudden and Gradual Enlightenment; Yunmen's Two Sicknesses; Ghosts in the Daylight: Commentary on the Capping Phrases; Dogen's Eight Awarenesses of the Enlightened Person; and an Introduction to the Eight Awarenesses - all by Taizan Maezumi; plus Sitting Down in the World of Enlightenment: Commentary on Yunmen's Two Sicknesses by Hakuun Yasutani; and Effort and Intuition: Sudden and Gradual Reconsidered by Neal Donner.

"It's a delight to see the Hazy Moon of Enlightenment revised and republished. This is an important sourcebook for any serious Buddhist practitioner." John Daido Loori.

"Profound insight shines through in this classic." Gerry Shishin Wick.
