Becoming Yourself: Teachings on the Zen Way of Life - Shunryu Suzuki

Descriere Becoming Yourself: Teachings on the Zen Way of Life - Shunryu Suzuki

From the beloved author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind comes a new book of teachings on the essence of Zen practice \nThere could not possibly be a better book for our moment in history. In the midst of national and international turmoil, it is still possible, if not utterly necessary, to learn the simplest things.--Naomi Shihab Nye \n \nOur way of sitting is for you to become yourself. \n \nIn this long-awaited book from one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the last century, Shunryu Suzuki Roshi shares simple, warmhearted teachings on a practice that is fundamentally about becoming yourself. In his inimitable style, filled with humor and insight, Becoming Yourself speaks directly to the newest beginners while also serving as a touchstone and a continual source of inspiration for even the most experienced practitioners and Zen teachers. \n \nBecoming Yourself unearths new jewels from the late Suzuki's lectures and brings to light many of his unpublished teachings. \n \nBecoming yourself is not meant to be understood as an idea; it is meant to be tried out as a way of being. It is Just to sit, a practice of wholeheartedly being as you are, moment after moment, no matter what is happening. It is a practice of deeply connecting with how it feels to be alive in your surroundings, whether on a meditation cushion or not, and stepping forward from that connection. It is opening to your life, wherever you are, and finding right there a deep well of innate wisdom, compassion and care.\n
