AbstractThe book heralded the end of armchair Buddhism. With this practical guide to Zen meditation, R. Kapleau ushered in the first wave of American zazen/ zen practitioners. It was extraordinarily inspiring. It still is. The book is the best book in English that has been written on Zen Buddhism. For over 30 years, the book has been the wellspring of Zen teachings for practitioners in the West, remaining as vital and fresh today as it was when it was originally published. It truly ranks among the timeless classics of Zen Buddhism.
