Review of "Zen mind, beginner's mind" on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This is such a wise little book. I read one section each day after sitting and I'm sure I will read it all over again (... and again and again). Some of the lessons are extremely complex, particularly in the section called "Right Understanding."

One of the lines that I've been pondering for a few days is a quote from Shunryu Suzuki's teacher Dogen-zenji: "You should establish your practice in your delusion." I love this idea.

I recommend this book to anyone interested in American Zen or the practice of meditation.
