In Zen liturgy we manifest that which is known to us intuitively in forms that are visible and tangible. Yet, generally, there is very little explanation available about liturgy. This book addresses both the spirit and the forms of Zen liturgy, especially as they can function for lay practitioners. In exploring liturgy at home, we uncover the deepest truths which are the lives of each one of us, evoke them, and transform what we consider mundane activities into sacredness itself.

This review is from: Celebrating Everyday Life (Paperback)
I love this little book and use it all the time when chanting the sutras, gathas and such. It's part of my daily practice.
The general text is clear and insightful. If you are looking for something to guide you in integrating your Zen with your daily life, this book will be a great help.
