Description
Here, translated into English for the first time, are more than 450 aphorisms and koans from "The Sayings of Jōshū", one of the outstanding Zen texts of T'ang period China. Jōshū (788-897), a Buddhist purist and iconoclast, is one of the best known and most controversial figures in the pantheon of Zen. The sayings attributed to him and the stories in which he figures are classics of Zen teaching. Preface by Master Hiro Sojo. --Back cover
