Introduction to Zen Training is a translation of the Sanzen Nyumon,
a foundational text for beginning meditation students by Omori
Sogen--one of the foremost Zen teachers of the twentieth century.
This book addresses many of the questions which arise when someone
first embarks on a journey of Zen meditation--ranging from how long
to sit at one time to how to remain mindful when not sitting--and
it concludes with commentaries on two other fundamental Zen texts,
Zazen Wasen (The Song of Meditation) and the Ox-Herding Pictures.
Written to provide a solid grounding in the physical nature of Zen
meditation training, this text delves into topics such as:
Breathing Pain Posture Physiology Drowsiness How to find the right
teacher The differences between the two main Japanese schools of
Zen: Soto and Rinzai Zen As a master swordsman, Omori Sogen's
approach to Zen is direct, physical, and informed by the rigorous
tradition of Zen and the martial arts that flourished during
Japan's samurai era. For him, the real aim of Zen is nothing short
of Enlightenment--and Introduction to Zen Training is a roadmap in
which he deals as adeptly with hundreds of years of Zen scholarship
as he does with the mundane practicalities of meditation. Sogen
prescribes a level of rigor and intensity in spiritual training
that goes far beyond wellness and relaxation, and that is rarely
encountered. His is a kind of spiritual warriorship he felt was
direly needed in the middle of the twentieth century and that is no
less necessary today. With a new foreword from Daihonzan Chozen-ji,
the headquarters Zen temple established by Omori Sogen in Hawaii,
this book is an essential text for every student of Zen meditation.

There is a clear economic difference between the more
economically-developed Western Europe and their poorer counterparts
in Eastern Europe and central Asia. But what caused this economic
divergence? How big of a role did communism play? If communism is
responsible, through what economic mechanisms did it manage to
hinder growth? This paper will look at GDP/capita, growth in
GDP/capita, human capital, labor to land ratio, ratio of unskilled
to skilled workers, growth in lifespan, average expenditure per
student and variations in these outcomes in order to determine a
more specific impact of communism. This paper finds not only that
communism had a huge negative impact on growth, but that even
though communism was completely gone from Europe by 1991; it still
impacts the growth of former communist countries. Moreover, there
seem to be 2 blocks of countries within the communist bloc:
non-Soviet Central and Eastern Europe and Soviet Eastern Europe and
Central Asia and these two regions behave very differently.
