In Reimagining Zen in a Secular Age Andre van der Braak offers an
account of the exciting but also problematic encounter between
enchanted Japanese Zen Buddhism and secular Western modernity over
the past century, using Charles Taylor's magnum opus A Secular Age
as an interpretative lens. As the tenuous compromises of various
forms of "Zen modernism" are breaking down today, new imaginings of
Zen are urgently needed that go beyond both a Romantic mystical Zen
and a secular "mindfulness" Zen. As a Zen scholar-practitioner,
Andre van der Braak shows that the Zen philosophy of the 13th
century Zen master Dogen offers much resources for new
hermeneutical, embodied, non-instrumental and communal approaches
to contemporary Zen theory and practice in the West.
