After flipping her raft days away from help on a trip down the remote Salmon River, Katie Arnold's shattered leg tests both her spirit and her marriage for years to come. It also reignites her meditation practice and motivates her to dive into Zen in search of healing.

In the midst of hardship, Katie turns for support to the Zen practice she had long dabbled in.

Many of us, even on our happiest days, struggle to quiet the constant buzz of anxiety in the background of our minds. All kinds of worries—worries about losing people and things, worries about how we seem to others—keep us from peace of mind. Distracted or misled by our preoccupations, misconceptions, and, most of all, our obsession with ourselves, we don't see the world clearly—we don't see the world as it really is.

Nur einmal in der Geschichte des menschlichen Bewusstseins, so Osho, sei etwas wie Zen entstanden. In "Zen: Seine Geschichte und Lehre" erklärt der bekannte Mystiker, dass Zen keine Rituale, keine Gesänge, keine Mantras, keine Schriften kennt–nur kurze, eindringliche Gleichnisse und Lehren, die es ideal für den modernen Suchenden machen.

Fühlen Sie sich auch oft überwältigt von den Anforderungen des Alltags? Der Bestsellerautor und Zen-Mönch Shunmyo Masuno hat eine radikale Botschaft: Wir können alles loslassen – manchmal ist es sogar das Beste, einfach nichts zu tun! Mithilfe seiner 99 prägnanten, inspirierenden Impulse wird es möglich, das mühevolle Streben nach Kontrolle aufzugeben, das Chaos zu bändigen und alles loszulassen, was uns ablenkt und blockiert: die ständigen Erwartungen, die an uns gestellt werden, unser negatives Gedankenkarussell oder auch die meist überflüssigen Sorgen, die wir uns machen.

In The Five Ranks of Zen, American Zen teacher Shishin Wick offers an accessible entry point to each of the ranks, which Tozan created in two formulations: the first and better-known is the Five Ranks of the Relative and the Absolute; while the second set, called the Sequence of Merit, is an abbreviated form of the Ten Oxherding Pictures, a traditional formulation of the Zen spiritual journey.

Come spiegare un'arancia a chi non ne ha mai assaggiata una? Come raccontarne il gusto zuccherino e acidulo, il profumo dolce e fiorito, la sua consistenza fresca e succosa che al morso oppone una tenera resistenza? Per quanto si provi è impossibile, come lo è presentare i concetti fondamentali di una tradizione potente e trasformativa pari a quella del buddhismo, per la quale sono fondamentali guide sicure e prudenti, maestri che sappiano puntare il dito nella direzione giusta.

What if the most important work of your life isn’t something you chase—but something you uncover, slowly, in stillness? What if your presence is the greatest offering you can make to the world? This book is an invitation to come home to yourself—gently, honestly, and with great love. As an evolution of, and a departure from, her best-selling journals, Practice You, and Being You, Brower draws on her memories and life experiences, her practice of yoga and Nonviolent Communication, and more recently, her study of Zen, to offer us a road map for living with presence and reverence.
