Beschreibung
"Although it is framed as a commentary on The Song of Zazen and certainly is that, this book is also idiosyncratic, even weird, in ways that I find enticing and that certainly form a contrast to the sometimes bland or redundant quality of much American Buddhist writing. In his effort to represent Zen in postwar Japan, one can feel both Mumon Roshi's roots in an earlier era and his curiosity about how Zen could retain its purpose and power in modern Japanese life and culture. As you can see in the photo above, this English translation was published already, but it was a private printing of 1,000 copies in Japan by the Asia South Pacific Friendship Association, and I don't think many of those copies will have made it outside of Japan. Those who sponsored the project always hoped to find an American publisher for it as well, and that's why Norman reached out to us"--

Über den Autor
YAMADA MUMON was born in the mountainous Aichi Prefecture of Japan in 1900. While attending high school in Tokyo, reading Confucius turned him toward the deeper questions about life. He began exposing himself to Christian and Buddhist teachers, entering a Zen monastery at the age of 19. Mumon later met his primary teacher, Seki Seisetsu Roshi, and moved into Tenryū-ju monastery, where he served the master until his death in 1945. In his fifties, Mumon became a master in his own right, serving as abbot of Shofuku-ji Temple in Kobe, where he taught both Japanese and Western students and eventually established an international network of disciples. Known for his curiosity and for his many writings on Zen, he passed away in 1988. NORMAN WADDELL, born in Washington, D.C., in 1940, is the authoritative English translator of works by and about Hakuin. He taught at Otani University in Japan for over thirty years and was editor of the Eastern Buddhist Journal for several decades. He has published more than a dozen books on Japanese Zen Buddhism and is one of the finest translators of sacred texts of our time.
