Synopsis:
New paperback edition. A successor in the lineage of Shunryo Suzuki, Jakusho Kwong shows us how to treasure the ordinary activities of our daily lives through an understanding of simple Buddhist practices and ideas. His spontaneous, poetic, and pragmatic teachings - so reminiscent of his spiritual predecessor Shunryo Suzuki - transport us on a journey into the very heart of Zen and its meaningful traditions. Jakusho Kwong combines this advice and inspiring teachings with some lesser well-known stories from the Zen tradition and humerous anecdotes of his training with Suzuki Roshi.

"Jakusho Kwong's book is not about Zen, it is Zen. In what he says and, more important, in how he says it, Kwong-roshi is constantly pointing at the practice/realization of our day-to-day life. He is compassionate and tenacious at the same time. No Beginning, No End invites us to become intimate with our life in the deepest sense of the world and, in the process, with the teachings - and the heart - of a great American Zen master." Bernie Glassman.

"This excellent book is the fruit of Jakusho Kwong-roshi's steady, peaceful, and profound practice. His clear and inspiring expression of the intimate heart of Zen shows that the Dharma transmitted from Japan to America by Suzuki-Roshi has been received and maintained." Shohaku Okumura.

"California-born Kwong speaks the language of Zen with an American accent...The book is persuasive. It is the fruit of a ripened mind, hardened by practice but also softened by the compassionate wisdom drawn from those same long years of experience." Publishers Weekly.
