by Taisen Deshimaru (Author), Nancy Amphoux (Translator), Nancy Amphoux (Editor)
"True religion," the great Japanese teacher Taisen Deshimaru wrote, "is not esoteric or mystical, it is not an exercise in well-being or gymnastics. True religion is the highest Way, the absolute Way: zazen."
Here, Deshimaru, the author of True Zen, offers practical suggestions for developing unitary mind-body consciousness through the principles of zazen (translated literally as "seated meditation"). Advice is given on posture, breathing, and concentration, and concepts such as karma and satori are clearly explained.Author Biography
