Produktbeschreibung
"Tangen Roshi saw a Buddha in everyone and everything. He treated those he encountered in this way without differentiating between big and small, important and not important, enlightened and deluded. Yet at the same time, Tangen Roshi would tirelessly guide his students to what he himself realized, demanding of them to give their all to their practice, just as he did. No matter if someone stayed in Bukkoku-ji for 30 years or just for one day, everybody was struck by his living example of Bodhisattva life. Since the readers of this book in the West will most likely be Zen or Buddhist practitioners, the talks presented here are mostly excerpts taken from teisho given to students at retreats. As these teisho were intended to be an encouragement for the whole day of practice, it might be that instead of reading this book in a day or two from beginning to end, the best way of engaging with these teachings would be to read one talk at a time, reflect on it, and put it into practice"--

Autorenporträt
Tangen Harada began intensive monastic Zen practice under the guidance of the famous Sogaku Harada Roshi in 1947. Following a series of realization experiences, he received Dharma transmission at age twenty-seven and became abbot of Bukkoku-ji temple, where he taught for close to sixty years. Maintaining a strict and traditional spirit of practice, he accepted all manner of students—monastic and lay, and of all nationalities, genders, and ages. Tangen Roshi was one of the most revered contemporary Zen masters of the Soto School, and he influenced the many Zen students and teachers around the world who practiced under his guidance until his death in 2018.
