Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Taisen Deshimaru (1914-1982) was a Japanese Zen Master, and the individual largely responsible for bringing Soto Zen to Europe. A legendary figure, widely acknowledged throughout the Zen world, he stands in the ranks of the great Zen teachers of modern times, including, Suzuki Roshi, Maezumi Roshi, and others. This second edition of his book The Voice of the Valley, first issued in 1979, contains the pure Deshimaru vintage-teaching. Uniquely, it is one of the few Zen books treating the subject of karma, a principle deeply entrenched in Hindu and some Buddhist traditions, but rarely taught within Zen. Karma generally refers to the principle of cause and effect, acknowledging that each individual will reap what they sow, whether in this lifetime or some future life. Deshimaru, however, explains that this doctrine really has nothing to do with a simple good or bad balance-chart for the individual person, but rather concerns the activity of humanity as a whole. He highlights the necessity for clearly seeing one s own thinking, which is creating the hell that we and others endure an immediate karmic payback.With zazen, a practitioner becomes not only acquainted with the contents of mind, but able to refocus it, allowing the body to think in ways that are beneficial to oneself and others. As he compares this doctrine of karma within Mahayana Buddhism with Western philosophy, he points to the need for wise and ethical action in all aspects of life. His dedication, like that of great masters in all traditions, is with the relief of suffering and the clarity needed to pierce to the cause of suffering. Serious sitting practice, in the way he presents it, creates that access. The book is a live record of the Master s teaching content (kusens) and his style of presentation during a practice sesshin (retreat) of several days. Deshimaru spoke in English, and his words were recorded and compiled from notes taken by the editor (Coupey) and other students. His subjects are as timely today as they were in the late 70s. At a time when contemporary Zen practice has been co-opted by the culture of new and now, his teachings do not compromise. This is no self-oriented wellness Zen cultivated for feeling more relaxed.This is the real deal, a call to a stark, no-gain approach to clear perception of reality from one who studied and practiced this tradition fully aligned to its source. As such, this book is a precious vehicle of direct transmission Revised edition of: The voice of the valley: Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill, A1979.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. While countless memoirs exist written by Zen students and teachers, few are as engaging and as tantalizing as Taisen Deshimaru's. Looking back at his early life, growing up in Japan, from the viewpoint of his status as a Zen teacher in Paris, the author reflects on his earliest misadventuresfrom defacing a valuable painting of Bodhidharma as a child, to turning the "Zen stick" on a young monk during a retreat. Adventures abound with stories about alcohol and women, during his student years, and his activities during World War II in working for the arms industry in Malaysia, where he was sympathetic to the underground freedom movement.This first English-language translation of Taisen Deshimaru's autobiography will be prized for its clear and honest documentation of this great master's life. Many people all over the world have been influenced by Deshimaru's Zen teachings, especially his book on Zen and the martial arts. This memoir fills an important gap in our knowledge of his teacher, Kodo Sawaki's influence on the world of Zen. The story of how Deshimaru met Sawaki as a boy, even slept in the same room with him, and later received monastic ordination is the story of a lifelong friendship of two extraordinary characters in the history of modern Zen.Deshimaru's influence extends beyond Zen practitioners, though, especially in those interested in the martial arts, as he touches on his martial arts experience as a young man and offers a look into the master's early training.Additional interest extends to historians who recount the supposed "scandals" of Zen masters' participation in the war effort. Although Deshimaru's viewpoint is decidedly subjective, he was intimately acquainted with priests and generals alike, and approaches the difficult subject with a refreshing lack of judgmental disdain which counterbalances many other more lopsided works.

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El budismo Zen es una de las formas más ampliamente estudiadas de la práctica espiritual en el mundo actual. El autocontrol de la mente que puede alcanzarse a través del zazen (meditación sentada) permite a una persona reasumir su naturaleza y personalidad verdaderas y originales así como comprender la realidad en forma de experiencia directa. Desde sus orígenes formales hace mil quinientos años, el Zen ha sido predicado por una serie de patriarcas y Maestros que comprendieron y encarnaron el espíritu del Buda histórico. La voz del valle reúne singularidades que la alejan de otras obras de divulgación de la doctrina Zen, escritas tanto por occidentales como por japoneses. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
