Zen Teachings of Kyogen Carlson

Herausgeber: Tisdale, Sallie

Beschreibung

"Set according to the four seasons of the liturgical calendar at Dharma Rain Zen Center in Portland, Oregon, this book lays out a wealth of Zen teachings culled from decades of talks by Kyogen Carlson. Important themes in the book include the simultaneous centrality and ineffability of zazen; moments of kensho or sudden awakening; issues surrounding spiritual authority; the role of community life in personal practice; and the importance, in interfaith dialogue, or reaching across political lines as opposed to simply religious lines"--
