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. Until his death, he ceaselessly taught the secret of Zen: shikantaza, the practice of sitting selflessly in the posture of awakening (zazen).
Zen teachings are deeply rooted in everyday life, aiming at a profound transformation of the individual towards true self-realization, and in this they are of unique effectiveness.
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.
