Download What Is Zen?: Plain Talk for a Beginner's Mind AudioBook Free
An accessible and gratifying launch to Zen Buddhist practice - in a listener-friendly question-and-answer format - by two highly regarded teacher-writers. The question-and-answer format makes this launch to Zen especially easy to understand - and to use as a reference point, as you can easily research just the question you'd at heart. The esteemed Zen professor Norman Fischer and his old good friend and teaching colleague Susan Moon (both of these in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki, writer of Zen Head, Beginner's Head) give this collaborative work a playful build: Susan asks a question on our behalf, Norman right answers it, and then Sue challenges him. By the time you get through their conversations, you'll have a good basic education in Zen - not only the annals, theory, and practice but also the contemporary issues, such as gender inequality, sexual ethics, and the tension between Asian customs and the modern American reality.
