Produktbeschreibung

Straightforward instruction on integrating Zen Buddhist meditation practice into all aspects of your daily life.

American Zen Buddhist monk and teacher Claude AnShin Thomas distills decades of monastic study and experience into a practical guide for anyone interested in establishing a committed meditation practice--on and off the cushion. Applied Zen provides instruction on:

• Sitting meditation
• Walking meditation
• Working meditation
• Eating meditation
• Deep listening and mindful speech
• Creating a home altar

"Meditation doesn't have just one form," Claude AnShin writes. "It is not only something we do seated on a cushion or chair. It is a way of life." Applied Zen is a pithy, inspiring guide for readers seeking to establish or deepen their meditation practice.

Autorenporträt

Claude AnShin Thomas is a Zen Buddhist monk and the author of the book At Hell's Gate: A Soldier's Journey from War to Peace. At the age of 17 he enlisted in the US Army and served in the Vietnam War as a helicopter crew chief. Since that time, he has been working to heal the wounds of war--emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Ordained in Auschwitz in 1994 by Bernie Tetsugen Glassman, he walked on pilgrimage from Auschwitz to Vietnam, begging for alms along the way in the ancient Buddhist tradition of takuhatsu. He has walked several
other pilgrimages since then in the United States and Europe.

Claude AnShin is the guiding teacher at the Magnolia Zen Center in Mary Esther, Florida, and the founder of the Zaltho Foundation, a nonprofit organization that promotes meditation and nonviolence.
