In this classic work of spiritual guidance, the founder of the Rochester Zen Center presents a comprehensive overview of Zen Buddhism. Exploring the three pillars of Zen - teaching, practice, and enlightenment - Roshi Philip Kapleau, the man who founded one of the oldest and most influential Zen centers in the United States, presents a personal account of his own experiences as a student and teacher, and in so doing gives listeners invaluable advice on how to develop their own practices. Revised and updated, this edition features a new afterword by Sensei Bodhin Kjolhede, who succeeded Kapleau as spiritual director of the Rochester Zen Center. A moving, eye-opening work, The Three Pillars of Zen is the definitive introduction to the history and discipline of Zen.

A good, if intense introduction
Listening to this felt like getting hit by a kyosaku, with all that entails.
Great information for the curious, a snack in the right direction for beginners.

Superb.
Thorough, concise, clear and comprehensive. Exactly what I wanted to know about Zen and even things I didn’t know that I wanted to know. Much more digestible for the western mind to absorb and has inspired me to read more, including Dōgen’s great work. So great duo for this title.
