Descriere

Shikantaza—or "just sitting"—is one of the simplest yet most subtle forms of meditation, and one of the most easily misunderstood. This peerless volume brings together a wealth of writings, from the Buddha himself to Bodhidharma and Dogen and many of modern Zen Buddhism's most influential masters, all pointing directly to the heart of this powerful practice. Edited by one of America's preeminent Zen teachers, this book is a rich resource for wisdom seekers and scholars alike.
