The Zen Way is an invaluable introduction to Zen practice. It is divided into three parts: in the first, Ven. Myokyo-ni provides an overview of Buddhist belief in general, from the perspective of Zen. In her second part, she describes the daily rituals in a Rinzai Zen training monastery; while in the third, Ven. Myokyo-ni assesses Zen practice from a modern and European perspective.

The Venerable Myokyo-ni (1921–2007) was born Irmgard Schloegl in Leitersdorf, Austria. She came to England in 1950, and on becoming interested in Buddhism, she joined the Zen class at the UK Buddhist Society. In 1960 she travelled to Japan and underwent Zen training at Daitokuji in Kyoto, and was ordained as a Rinzai Zen Buddhist nun in 1984. She later became head of the Zen Centre in London, and wrote a number of influential books describing Zen practice.
