Through explorations of the three pillars of Zen–teaching, practice, and enlightenment–Roshi Philip Kapleau presents a comprehensive overview of the history and discipline of Zen Buddhism. An established classic, this 35th anniversary edition features new illustrations and photographs, as well as a new afterword by Sensei Bodhin Kjolhede, who has succeeded Philip Kapleau as spiritual director of the Rochester Zen Center, one of the oldest and most influential Zen centers in the United States.
“The Three Pillars of Zen is still, in my opinion, the best book in English that has been written on Zen Buddhism.”–Huston Smith, author of The Worlds’ Religions and Forgotten Truth
“The Three Pillars of Zen heralded the end of armchair Buddhism. With this practical guide to Zen meditation, Roshi Kapleau ushered in the first wave of American zazen practitioners. It was extraordinarily inspiring. It still is.”–Helen Tworkov, founding editor of Tricycle: The Buddhist Review and author of Zen in America
“For over thirty years Roshi Kapleau’s Three Pillars of Zen 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.”–Roshi John Daido Loori, Abbot, Zen Mountain Monastery
“For anyone seriously interested in Zen–this book will be invaluable.”–Times Literary Supplement (London)
