Now and Zen

Notes from a Buddhist Monastery: with Illustrations

'In Japan we have an expression, 'Float like Cloud, Flow like Water'. Its meaning is: to live free and unconstrained'

In this short introduction to Zen Buddhism, a practising Japanese monk shares the many lessons he has learned from life inside a temple.

With charm and humour, he guides us through everything from meditation to tea-drinking ceremonies, the meaning of koans to preparing Zen food. Accompanied by the author's own illustrations, this book invites you to change your perception through the wisdom of monastic life.
