The Eight Gates of Zen: Spiritual Training an American Zen Monastery

by John Daido Loori (Author)

The Eight Gates of Zen offers a matrix of opportunity for returning to intimate contact with our stillness and clarity, and to reclaim our lives.

The eight gates are zazen, direct study with the teacher, liturgy, ethical and moral precepts, art practice, body practice, academic study, and work practice.

This book emerges out of fourteen years of disciplined and vigorous Zen training at one of the most actice Zen Buddhist monasteries in this country. It reaches back to the enlightenment experience of Shakyamuni Buddha, and can be vital and relevant at this moment in time, amidst our global and personal challenges, if we engage it.
