A highly spiritual philosophy, Zen posits that all that exists is comprehensible through the mind. The true nature of Zen is revealed through the voices of Zen masters, whose words contain the essence of the philosophy and show how one can cultivate a Zen mind. Concentrating on the core of Buddhist teachings, Teachings of Zen underscores the belief, fundamental to Zen, that literal adherence to dogma cannot help individuals attain enlightenment. In parables and allegories, the book shows how one can liberate the mind and free oneself from egoism and delusion, achieving a personal path to enlightenment. The selections have been chosen for their clarity as well as their insight, fostering an approach to Zen that can be incorporated into modern life.
