{"product_id":"zen-mind-beginners-mind-shunryu-suzuki","title":"Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind (Shunryu Suzuki)","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few.\" So begins this most beloved of all American Zen books. Seldom has such a small handful of words provided a teaching as rich as has this famous opening line of Shunryu Suzuki's classic. In a single stroke, the simple sentence cuts through the pervasive tendency students have of getting so close to Zen as to completely miss what it's all about. An instant teaching on the first page. And that's just the beginning.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  In the thirty years since its original publication,  \u003ci\u003eZen Mind, Beginner's Mind  \u003c\/i\u003ehas become one of the great modern Zen classics, much beloved, much re-read, and much recommended as the best first book to read on Zen. Suzuki Roshi presents the basics from the details of posture and breathing in  \u003ci\u003ezazen\u003c\/i\u003e to the perception of nonduality in a way that is not only remarkably clear, but that also resonates with the joy of insight from the first to the last page. It's a book to come back to time and time again as an inspiration to practice.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eShunryu Suzuki (1904 1971) was one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the twentieth century and is truly a founding father of Zen in America.
