Summary of The Compass of Zen (Shambhala Dragon Editions)
The Compass of Zen is a simple, exhaustive?and often hilarious?presentation of the essence of Zen by a modern Zen Master of considerable renown. In his many years of teaching throughout the world, the Korean-born Zen Master Seung Sahn has become known for his ability to cut to the heart of Buddhist teaching in a way that is strikingly clear, yet free of esoteric and academic language. In this book, based largely on his talks, he presents the basic teachings of Buddhism and Zen in a way that is wonderfully accessible for beginners?yet so rich with stories, insights, and personal experiences that long-time meditation students will also find it a source of inspiration and a resource for study.Buddhism Books
