The perfect antidote to the fast-paced nature of our modern world, the Little Book of Zen is an easy to understand guide to the practice of Zen. This bitesize book falls into two parts, starting with an introduction to Zen and a description of the way to get the best out of it. It gives a short history of the practice, which originated in Japan after adaptation from a Chinese philosophy, and shows how the benefits of Zen are just as relevant today. It also includes a variety of easy-to-use meditations for relaxation, stress relief, and enlightenment. The second half of the book features categories of Zen-type quotations on life, happiness, nature. and more. Hardcover; 192 pages.
