Description
Lulu.com Zen Stories of the Samurai 2005 Edition by Neal Dunnigan
For centuries, short stories, poems, and anecdotes have been teaching tools in Zen Buddhism. Zen Stories of the Samurai draws from a large body of literature, focusing on martial stories, all depicting Zen encounters of samurai warriors in feudal Japan. The reader is encouraged to pick up the book many times, read only one or two stories, and then reflect in terms of their personal development. Zen ink paintings by John Hrabushi offer a meditative and intellectual "cross training" throughout the collection. Foreword by noted Aikido Shihan Lorraine DiAnne.
