| Summary |
"The Zen scholar and author of Hints in Haiku offers a revealing introduction to Zen thought and practice in this collection of essays. In 1964, when he accepted a visiting professorship at Coe College teaching non-Western studies, Norimoto Iino wrote this uniquely insightful introduction to Zen for his students. As he says in the preface, "Zen is a subject notoriously elusive. It goes beyond the happiest form of linguistic expression." And yet, Iino pursues his topic with illuminating clarity and probing insight. In Zeal for Zen , Iino discusses Zen as an ever-evolving way of seeing and a powerful antidote to the egoistic pursuit of power. He covers a wide range of topics, from Soto Zen and Zen prayer to mathematics, modern physics, and the Zenlike works of English philosopher Alfred North Whitehead."-- Provided by Freading. |
