About this book
Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki, professor at Otani Buddhist College in Kyoto, presents Zen to English-speaking readers in this first series of essays. His preface sets Zen, the self-power wing of Buddhism, beside Shin, the other-power wing, and notes how little had been written in English since his 1907 note in the Journal of the Pali Text Society. He explains why the sayings of the masters and the kō-an are hard to approach, and tries to present Zen in terms of common sense and ordinary reasoning.
