This intriguing, important work of literature - an outstanding way to experience Zen - is currently available in sound. It is extremely difficult to comprehend Zen by studying it as you'll other intellectual pursuits. The ultimate way to understand Zen is, simply, to Zen. This is what writer Eugen Herrigel allows us to do by sharing his own fascinating trip toward a understanding of this illuminating philosophy. In Japan, an art such as archery is not practiced only for utilitarian purposes such as learning to hit goals. Archery is also meant to train the mind and take it into connection with the ultimate reality. If one really wishes to be expert of an art, technical knowledge of it isn't enough. You have to transcend approach so that the skill becomes an "artless skill" growing out of the unconsciousness. In this way, as the writer simply, clearly shows, archery becomes a way to greater understanding and enlightenment.
