Book excerpt: In his definitive introduction to Zen Buddhism, Alan Watts ("the perfect guide for a course correction in life" —Deepak Chopra), explains the principles and practices of this ancient religion. With a rare combination of freshness and lucidity, he delves into the origins and history of Zen to explain what it means for the world today with incredible clarity. Watts saw Zen as “one of the most precious gifts of Asia to the world,” and in The Way of Zen he gives this gift to readers everywhere. “Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of ‘writing beautifully the unwritable.’” —Los Angeles Times

Download or read book Living Zen written by Robert Linssen and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Zen is that rare achievement, both a survey of the rich history of Zen Buddhism and a guide to the practice of this most demanding and effortless art of being. The distinguished Belgian Scholar Robert Linssen offers a sage corrective to the idea that the Zen way is available only to those prepared to sit life out under the Bhodi-Tree. Gently but insistently he undermines this typically Western View, inviting and enabling us, as Christmas Humphreys puts it in his preface, to take 'the leap from thought to No-thought, from the ultimate duality of Illusion/Reality to a burst of laughter and a cup of tea.'

Book excerpt: Federico Jôkô PROCOPIO partage "de cœur à cœur" son expérience de la méditation et, à travers elle, la philosophie du bouddhisme zen, inépuisable source de bonheur Il nous y donne accès, convaincu que l'homme est avant tout un être profondément spirituel et que la foi le pétrit au plus intime de lui-même. Son désir est d'ouvrir cette Voie de sagesse ancienne au plus large nombre, persuadé que si l'homme n'a pas nécessairement besoin d'apparats religieux pour donner un sens à son existence et goûter le sens du monde, il recèle en lui une soif spirituelle indicible, un désir de bonheur profond, une inouïe sagesse et une grande bonté. Sans le savoir et à portée de sa main, l'être humain frôle sans cesse l'immensité et, sous chacun de ses pas, une incroyable béatitude absolue. Un guide essentiel pour ceux qui souhaitent trouver leur chemoin vers la spiritualité et vivre l'expérience de la méditation zen A PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Federico Jôkô PROCOPIO, philosophe et psychanalyste, est né en Italie en 1976. Á 10 ans, il entre au séminaire, puis au monastère bénédictin ; il passera 10 années dans une vie religieuse chrétienne à la recherche de l’accomplissement d’une vocation spirituelle contemplative avant de quitter le cloître pour retrouver une vie pleinement vécue et profondément spirituelle au cœur du monde. En 1998, il rencontre le bouddhisme zen comme une révélation. Depuis 16 ans, il pratique cette Voie qu’il a aussi enseignée plusieurs années à Paris. Ordonné moine zen pour la première fois en 2002, il a porté la pratique de la méditation en entreprise, en milieu hospitalier et auprès des personnes âgées. EXTRAIT Celui qui contemple ses profondeurs découvre l’univers Lorsque l’invitation à écrire sur le zen s’est présentée à moi, j’ai ressenti non seulement la reconnaissance d’être un passeur de plus, une main supplémentaire qui puisse transmettre ce merveilleux trésor-héritage qu’est le bouddhisme zen, mais aussi la formidable chance d’ancrer cette transmission dans la culture occidentale chrétienne qui est la nôtre, ici, aujourd’hui par le vécu d’un moine bouddhiste occidental et laïque. Pourquoi cela m’a-t-il paru si important ? Parce que je suis un chrétien baptisé, j’ai vécu dix ans de ma jeunesse au séminaire puis dans l’ordre bénédictin comme jeune moine appelé par un fervent désir spirituel, hélé par une voix intérieure à creuser la connaissance de ce Grand Tout qui nous dépasse et que l’on appelle « Dieu », interpellé par une soif de vie indicible, aspirant à la réalisation d’une existence sainte, comblée de sens, et rayonnante de bonté.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italian philosopher Julius Evola pares away centuries of adaptations to reveal Buddhist practice in its original context.
