For westerners,a wonderful introduction,

This review is from: The Practice of Zen Meditation (Paperback)
The late Fr. enomiya-lasalle, german jesuit and along with Frs.Henri la saux,Bede Griffiths, William Johnstin and Thomas Merton,are the great bridges from west to east. Fr Lasalle was a survivor of one of the Atomic blasts{a tv movie made about Hiroshima cast max von syndow as a composite],and an accepted Zen master while retaining his standing{as it was] as a catholic priest. the fact that he served in Japan with dom pedro arrupe, later to be general of the jesuits was certainly advantageous.This book, then is a compostite of fr enomiya -lasalle,a week long retreat ,as it were,a 7 day zen reatreat. The writing is non esoteric[somehow, zen can appear like quantum mechanics], clear and clean,like calligraphy. A wonderful intro, for people like me without the backround,though most definitely NOT A NEW AGE FUZZY WARM BOOK. There is effort[or better NON_EFFORT] involved here. Well, done, very well presented ....

I was pleased with the book's condition and pleased to be able to get the book. It arrived just in time for a silent meditation retreat. Valuable as a day-today source. Exercises to limber the body for lotus positions I hope will be helpful.
