Synopsis

Le bouddhisme zen transmet ses vérités profondes et puissantes à travers des épigrammes, des paraboles et des histoires brèves, énigmatiques et souvent amusantes des maîtres. En plus des 101 histoires zen, ce volume contient La porte sans porte, un recueil de koans ou de puzzles que les étudiants utilisaient pour accorder leur esprit à l'illumination, et 10 taureaux, un récit illustré d'une chasse au taureau qui symbolise les étapes ascendantes de la conscience. Dans Centreing, un ancien texte sanskrit aux racines du zen, Shiva propose112 façons d'ouvrir la porte invisible de la conscience . Le zen ne peut jamais être résumé dans une bible ou un corpus doctrinal définitif, mais pour quiconque cherche l'inspiration et l'illumination de la sagesse zen, ces textes classiques constituent le point de départ idéal.

Biographie de l'auteur

Paul reps, the compiler, was an American who lived in many countries, including india, Norway, and Japan, and studied many of man's efforts to find and realize his true spiritual stature. He was the author of several books of poems and prose. He once said that he felt "the equal of each grass blade and pebble and believe that it is possible to be happy though human and grown up."

Nyogen Senzaki, a buddhist scholar of international character to whom reps acknowledged a deep debt of gratitude, was born in Japan. Early in life he became a "homeless monk," wandering the land and studying from buddhist monastery to monastery. His wanderings eventually took him to America, where for over 50 years he lived in California, with no connection with any sect, denomination, or cathedral, radiating the free and creative spirit of Zen upon all who cared to share his study, meditation, wisdom, and loving kindness.
