Questions to a Zen Master

Taisen Deshimaru

Religion & Spirituality

E.P.Dutton

“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.

Voici les dernières paroles du maître zen Deshimaru qui, sentant sa mort venir, lègue en 1982 l'essence de son enseignement issu de l'expérience spirituelle de toute une vie. 
L'Anneau de la Voie est sans commencement ni fin. C'est la répétition de l'expérience vécue "ici et maintenant" qui porte en elle l'éternité. Paroles transmises de patriarche en patriarche au-delà du temps, au-delà des illusions de la vie et de la pensée, cet ouvrage est la trace d'un enseignement oral qui trouve sa source dans le Bouddha Shakyamuni.

The Ring of the Way: Testament of a Zen Master

The Way of True Zen is a compilation of the most influential writings of Master Deshimaru, covering many Zen and Buddhist fundamentals. Sample titles are: "Fukanzazengi" (Dogen's instructions on zazen sitting practice), "The Spirit of Zen", and "Hishiryo" (beyond thinking and non-thinking). Deshimaru offers core teachings in a powerful, substantial modern dialogue.
