A lodestone of Zen Buddhism, the Platform Sutra presents the life, work, and wisdom of Eno, or Huineng, the fascinating and much-loved seventh-century Sixth Patriarch of Chinese Zen. He was an illiterate woodcutter who famously attained enlightenment after only hearing a single line of the Diamond Sutra, and who went on to decisively upstage senior monks with a poem that demonstrated the depth and clarity of his insight.

Zazen. Aber wie?
Shodo Harada Roshi (geb. 1940) ist einer der fünf Nachfolger von Yamada Mumon Roshi (1900-1988) und leitet Zen-Sesshins in seinen Klöstern Sogenji in Japan, Hokuozan in Deutschland sowie Tahoma in den USA und Indozan in Indien.

Harada Roshi ist einer der großen Zen-Meister unserer Zeit, der die hunderte Jahre alte Zen-Tradition für Menschen im Westen auslegt und dabei nicht die ursprüngliche Intensität der Übung aus den Augen verliert. Er sieht die Zukunft dieser Übung in der Laienpraxis und gibt praktische Anweisungen, die auch im Alltag umgesetzt werden können.
Zen Master Who?
Surprisingly little has been written about how Zen came to North America. "Zen Master Who?" does that and much more. Author James Ishmael Ford, a renowned Zen master in two lineages, traces the tradition's history in Asia, looking at some of its most important figures -- the Buddha himself, and the handful of Indian, Chinese, and Japanese masters who gave the Zen school its shape. It also outlines the challenges that occurred as Zen became integrated into western consciousness, and the state of Zen in North America today. The author includes profiles of modern Zen teachers and institutions, including D. T. Suzuki and Alan Watts, and such topics as the emergence of liberal Buddhism, and Christians, Jews, and Zen. This engaging, accessible book is aimed at anyone interested in this tradition but who may not know how to start. Most importantly, it clarifies a great and ancient tradition for the contemporary seeker.

Enso House
Enso House is a home for end-of-life care on Whidbey Island, in the Pacific Northwest. This book relates the journey of a group of people striving to create a community rooted in spiritual practice and focused on caring for people who are dying. In this setting, patients and caregivers are able to confront the realities of sickness, aging, and death. This is a story about spiritual openness-how seemingly miraculous outcomes spring from letting go of control and knowing. It is a story of community-neighbors who discover that in volunteering their talents, they receive even greater gifts than they give. It is the story of the life-giving power of death.
