Drawn from the records of Chinese Zen masters of the Tang and Song
dynasties, this collection may surprise some readers. In contrast
to the popular image of Zen as an authoritarian, monastic tradition
deeply rooted in Asian culture, these passages portray Zen as
remarkably flexible, adaptive to contemporary and individual needs,
and transcending cultural boundaries.
The readings contained in Zen Essence emphasize that the practice
of Zen requires consciousness alone and does not depend on a
background in Zen Buddhism and Asian culture. The true essence of
Zen resides in the relationship between mind and culture, whatever
that culture might be. This unique collection of writings creates a
picture of Zen not as a religion or philosophy, but as a practical
science of freedom.
