    Shunmyo Masuno's book and essential teachings

    Hi all,

    I just wanted to share this article with you. Masuno emphasizes the importance of practice in Zen: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture.../#.XLQ43fZuJPY

    (I'm not a student of Shunmyo Masuno, I never have been, and this is not an attempt to promote his new book).

    Gassho,
    Jack

    And an impossibly long reading list grows one book longer...

      Thank you.

        He had with 'Zen' then finished me off with 'simple living'. Another one to the never ending list!

        Thanks for the link.

            Thank you for the link. The book is added to the growing list which, I assume, like
            a zen garden, can never be finished

            I am a novice priest-in-training. Anything that I say must not be considered as teaching
            and should be taken with a 'grain of salt'.

              Thanks for posting this. Like Washin my list of to read books keeps getting longer.

              It looks like this is published under two titles. It looks like these are the same books - same number of pages - publication dates are 2 days apart.

                From what I can see, the Table of Contents is the same too. Strange.

                Also, congratulate me, I got back my signed contract with Wisdom Publications for my book on reading Dogen! I'm an author! (Tentative new title: "The Dance of Being." They changed it for some reason I must find out from my original "The Zen Master's Dance" which I still care for)
