from the Shobogenzo, as well as sayings about zen from Kodo Sawaki. This book gives very specific instructions how to practice zazen from the words of these great zen masters. It is expensive for such a small book, but it is a book to keep with you and reread reread passages from it. I think this book along with Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind, might be the two best foundation books on zen for beginners and more advanced practitioners. Show Less
