Synopsis:
An accessible and informal introduction to Buddhist thought and the principles of Zen by a Japanese master, ideal for Western readers. The author is chief priest of the Hosshinji Temple.
In addition to explaining the principles of Zen, the book includes detailed instructions on the practice of zazen, or "sitting Zen". Open the book to any section and the underlying message of the master's teaching is quickly apparent. In order to attain true peace of mind, it is imperative that we forget the small self - the grasping, demanding "me". This is by no means easy, but if we succeed, we will realize the self without beginning or end, which transcends time and space.
"A compassionate book from a realized master, a book that deserves to be read and reread." Zen master Dae Gok.
"In this gem of a book, Zen master Sekkei Harada wields the life-affirming sword of Zen, cutting through even the slightest movement toward self-centredness, and illuminating the universal law of cause and effect. Harada Roshi's insistence on mutual suuport among all people serves to inspire readers to affirm a world in which we awaken together." Roshi Wendy Egyoku Nakao.
"In this small book we meet the big heart of Sekkei Harada Roshi, tireless teacher of the Dharma to many students in America and Europe. He is here, encouraging us with kindness, patience, and clarity. I highly recommend this book." Zenkei Blanche Hartman.
"Sekkei Harada, one of the most important Japanese Soto Zen masters of this age, goes straightforwardly into the heart of Zen practice." Shohaku Okumura. |
