Budo Books

This book contains transcripts of the authentic teachings of a great Zen master of our time. Rōshi Taisen Deshimaru came to Europe in 1967 to spread the pure Zen teachings here and to teach Shikantaza, the practice of sitting selflessly in the posture of awakening (zazen). Many illustrations and texts by old masters round out this work into a compendium that has long been considered the introduction to Zen par excellence.
