'Our way of sitting is for you to become yourself.'Shunryu Suzuki was one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the last century, who brought Zen philosophy to millions of people. In this book of teachings, many published for the first time, he shares simple, warm-hearted lessons on a practice that is fundamentally about becoming yourself. Filled with humour and insight, Becoming Yourself speaks directly to the newest beginners while also serving as a touchstone and a continual source of inspiration for even the most experienced practitioners and Zen masters. Resonant, clear and brimming with insight, Becoming Yourself brings together a lifetime's wisdom in one remarkable volume.
Biography
Shunryu Suzuki (geb. 1904 in Japan, gest. 1971 in den USA) gilt als der bedeutendste ZenMeister der Neuzeit. Als einfacher Tempelpriester entschloss er sich 1959 als Meditationslehrer nach Amerika zu gehen. In San Francisco gründete er das erste ZenZentrum im Westen, später das berühmte ZenKloster Tassajara in den kalifornischen Bergen. In den 60er Jahren war er der geistige Mittelpunkt der kulturellen und spirituellen Szene an der Westküste der USA. Zu seinen Schülern und Bewunderern gehörten berühmte Künstler wie Alan Ginsberg, John Lennon und Alan Watts.
