دانلود کتاب Zen Flesh, Zen Bones

ZEN FLESH, ZEN BONES is four books in one — books that would rank high in the canon of Zen, if Zen were so non-Zen as to have scriptures. "101 Zen Stories" recounts experiences of Chinese and Japanese Zen teachers over a period of more than five centuries. "The Gateless Gate" offers a collection of 13th-century koans to sit with in practice. "10 Bulls" is a 12th-century commentary on the stages of awareness leading to enlightenment. Finally, "Centering", a 4,000 year old teaching from India, offers what some consider to be the roots of Zen. When this book was first published in 1957 it became a guide for an entire generation of western seekers who were just beginning to explore Zen. In the years since it has inspired leading American Zen teachers, students, and practitioners. Join them. [From the inside cover.]
