“Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki has been considered to be one of the foremost authorities on Zen Buddhism. This book is essential reading for anyone wanting a basic understanding of what Zen Buddhism is and what it is not. In it he takes you on a journey into the world beyond western mentality and understanding. In it he discusses the purpose of the Zen Koans. the riddles that are at the heart of Zen study, whose primary purpose is to "unbridle the mind". He has authored more than a hundred works both in Japanese and English. This book is also a wonderful reference for anyone wanting to reaquaint themselves with Eastern thought.”
