Description: Up for sale is a lot of three rare Zen Buddhism books. The first one is from 1977, and was published by Don Baker. It appears that all three of them were translated by Habu Kenichiro, the second two were published Habu Takashi; parts 2 and 3 in 1990, and parts four, five and six in 1993. All three of these are very difficult to find and I don't see any of these for sale online at the moment. The Zuimonki contains the teachings of the preeminent Zen Master Dogen in his own words, written down by his Dharma successor, Koun Ejo. Distinct from Dogens similarly titled magnum opus (simply called the Shobogenzo), the Shobogenzo Zuimonki can be read as a highly practical manual of Buddhist practice. Consisting of straightforward and accessible teachings and making more limited use of the allusion, wordplay, and metaphor that characterize the essays in the Shobogenzo, this work is an essential read for any student of Zen Buddhism. Among the many topics covered, Dogen especially emphasizes the following points: seeing impermanence, departing from the ego-centered self, being free from greed, giving up self-attachment, following the guidance of a true teacher, and the practice of zazen, specifically shikantaza, or just sitting. These teachings, which have informed teachers and practitioners alike throughout the centuries, will deepen your knowledge, understanding, and experience of the Soto Zen tradition.
