So begins this most beloved of all American Zen books. Seldom has such a small handful of words provided a teaching as rich as has this famous opening line. In a single stroke, the simple sentence cuts through the pervasive tendency students have of getting so close to Zen as to completely miss what it’s all about . An instant teaching on the first page. And that’s just the beginning.
In the forty years since its original publication, Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind has become one of the great modern Zen classics, much beloved, much reread, and much recommended as the best first book to read on Zen. Suzuki Roshi presents the basics-from the details of posture and breathing in zazen to the perception of nonduality-in a way that is not only remarkably clear, but that also resonates with the joy of insight from the first to the last page. It’s a book to come back to time and time again as an inspiration to practice, and it is now available to a new generation of seekers in this fortieth-anniversary edition, with a new afterword by Shunryu Suzuki’s biographer, David Chadwick.

In 1983 I worked in a public library. An elderly woman came in and requested this book. I knew the library didn't have it. The year before, this was part of the required reading for an undergraduate class I took in Eastern Philosophy. I told the lady I had a copy and offered to lend it to her. Two weeks later, she returned the book to me. Inside was a very nice handwritten note of thanks and how much she enjoyed the book. I still have both the book and the note.

The times are still like this. Nothing has fundamentally changed about the nature of humans or the existence of libraries.
The stories of enlightened beings and their path to awakening are some of the most mysterious and inspiring tales in Buddhism.
Thank you so much.
I wish Inner peace for y'all

why do you show a picture of a Tibetan monk when this is a teaching of a zen Buddhist?
Booooooooda
Buddhism is the only cure for all the problems in our life and it's the only religion that cures. I understand this truth today. Thank you my brother's and sister's for this video. 🙏 🙂

It's your own work. Samatha and visspassina. Buddha pounts the way. I bet you don't even have a meditation practice.

@spirit ._. It's founded on the four Noble truths. Meditation is the key. Training ones mind to let go of thoughts and feelings. Concepts to help stay in present awareness. Five obstacles to a pure mind. Concept of no self; teaching of impermanence; everything is empty; taking refuge in buddha is taking refuge in the present. Making ones home the present. Being free of the need to think. A trained mind.
