Zen: Tradition and Transition brings together some of the foremost
Zen masters and scholars to create a unique sourcebook for anyone
interested in understanding this rich tradition, its history, and
its current practice. The wide-ranging original contributions
include Chinese master Shen-yen on the essential techniques of
meditation; Philip Kapleau on the master-disciple relationship; and
Philip Yampolsky on the historical evolution of Japanese Zen.
Burton Watson explores Zen poetry using classics from China and
Japan, while Albert Low demonstrates the spirited style of Zen
commentary in his essay on one of the tradition's best-known texts.
Other fascinating pieces include Morinaga Sato's memoir, "My
Struggle to Become a Zen Monk, " and T. Griffith Foulk's portrait
of the daily life of modern Zen monks in Japan. Both accessible to
beginners and challenging to the serious student of Zen, this is an
authoritative and complete perspective on a philosophical tradition
that has flourished for a thousand years.
