Description
|
|
|
|
Building on the discoveries of Zen's founding teachers—from the spiritual quest and enlightenment of the historical Buddha to the "crazy wisdom" of the Chinese patriarchs who gave Zen its unique and unsettling flavor—Stephan Schuhmacher offers this fresh perspective on the essentials of the tradition. Like these masters, Schuhmacher does not try to answer such existential questions as "Who am I?" and "What is the meaning of life?" but instead coaxes readers into an encounter with the Zen mind, encouraging us to discover the answers within ourselves and untangling knots of thought with humor and paradox.
