  • Excerpts for Distribution
    EXCERPTS FOR DISTRIBUTION Two Shores of Zen An American Monk’s Japan _____________________________ Jiryu Mark Rutschman-Byler Order the book at WWW.LULU.COM/SHORESOFZEN Join the conversation at WWW.SHORESOFZEN.COM NO ZEN IN THE WEST When a young American Buddhist monk can no longer bear the pop-psychology, sexual intrigue, and free-flowing peanut butter that he insists pollute his spiritual community, he sets out for Japan on an archetypal journey to find “True Zen,” a magical elixir to relieve all suffering. Arriving at an austere Japanese monastery and meeting a fierce old Zen Master, he feels confirmed in his suspicion that the Western Buddhist approach is a spineless imitation of authentic spiritual effort. However, over the course of a year and a half of bitter initiations, relentless meditation and labor, intense cold, brutal discipline, insanity, overwhelming lust, and false breakthroughs, he grows disenchanted with the Asian model as well. Finally completing the classic journey of the seeker who travels far to discover the home he has left, he returns to the U.S. with a more mature appreciation of Western Buddhism and a new confidence in his life as it is. Two Shores of Zen weaves together scenes from Japanese and American Zen to offer a timely, compelling contribution to the ongoing conversation about Western Buddhism’s stark departures from Asian traditions. How far has Western Buddhism come from its roots, or indeed how far has it fallen? JIRYU MARK RUTSCHMAN-BYLER is a Soto Zen priest in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi. He has lived in Buddhist temples and monasteries in the U.S.

  • Opening the Hand of Thought : Approach To
    TRANSLATED BY SHOHAKl AND TOM WRIGHT ARKANA OPENING THE HAND OF THOUGHT Kosho Uchiyama Roshi was born in Tokyo in 1911. He received a master's degree in Western philosophy at Waseda University in 1937 and became a Zen priest three years later under Kodo Sawaki Roshi. Upon Sawaki Roshi's death in 1965, he assumed the abbotship of Antaiji, a temple and monastery then located near Kyoto. Uchiyama Roshi developed the practice at Anataiji, including monthly five-day sesshins, and often traveled throughout Japan, lec- turing and leading sesshins. He retired from Antaiji in 1975 and now lives with his wife at N6ke-in, a small temple outside Kyoto. He has written over twenty texts on Zen, including translations of Dogen Zenji into modern Japanese with commentaries, one of which is available in English (Refining Your Life, Tokyo: Weatherhill, 1983). Uchiyama Roshi is also well known in the world of origami, of which he is a master; he has published several books on origami. Shohaku Okumura was born in Osaka, Japan, in 1948. He studied Zen Buddhism at Komazawa University in Tokyo and was ordained as a priest by Uchiyama Roshi in 1970, practicing under him at An- taiji. From 1975 to 1982 he practiced at the Pioneer Valley Zendo in Massachusetts. After he returned to Japan, he began translating Dogen Zenji's and Uchiyama Roshi's writings into English with Tom Wright and other American practitioners. From 1984 to 1992 Rev. Okumura led practice at Shorinji, near Kyoto, as a teacher of the Kyoto Soto Zen Center, working mainly with Westerners.

  • The Old Tea Seller
    For My Wife Yoshie Portrait of Baisaō. Ike Taiga. Inscription by Baisaō. Reproduced from Eastern Buddhist, No. XVII, 2. The man known as Baisaō, old tea seller, dwells by the side of the Narabigaoka Hills. He is over eighty years of age, with a white head of hair and a beard so long it seems to reach to his knees. He puts his brazier, his stove, and other tea implements in large bamboo wicker baskets and ports them around on a shoulder pole. He makes his way among the woods and hills, choosing spots rich in natural beauty. There, where the pebbled streams run pure and clear, he simmers his tea and offers it to the people who come to enjoy these scenic places. Social rank, whether high or low, means nothing to him. He doesn’t care if people pay for his tea or not. His name now is known throughout the land. No one has ever seen an expression of displeasure cross his face, for whatever reason. He is regarded by one and all as a truly great and wonderful man. —Fallen Chestnut Tales Contents PART 1: The Life of Baisaō, the Old Tea Seller PART 2: Translations Notes to Part 1 Selected Bibliography Glossary/Index Introductory Note THE BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH of Baisaō in the first section of this book has been pieced together from a wide variety of fragmented source material, some of it still unpublished. It should be the fullest account of his life and times yet to appear. As the book is intended mainly for the general reader, I have consigned a great deal of detailed factual information to the notes, which can be read with the text, afterwards, or disregarded entirely.

  • Down-To-Earth Zen: Zen Buddhism in Japanese Manga and Movies
    Journal of Global Buddhism Vol. 16 (2015): 37-50 Research Article Down-to-Earth Zen: Zen Buddhism in Japanese Manga and Movies Elisabetta Porcu, University of Cape Town This paper analyzes some examples of the interconnections between Zen Buddhism and popular culture, notably manga and movies. In particular, it explores the recent manga Bōzu days (2007–2011) and the movies Fancy Dance (1989) and Abraxas matsuri (2010). In these works, Zen’s everyday and down-to-earth character comes to the fore, while zazen meditation occupies a relatively small place. As amply explored by scholarly works over the last few decades, the former aspect is usually overlooked in Zen presentations in the West while the latter is in line with a view of this religious tradition that has been adapted for its dissemination outside of Japan. My analysis aims to shed light on how aspects of popular culture employ Zen Buddhist features to create commercial products that are meant to reach a wide audience, and how Zen Buddhism is represented in these products. Keywords: Zen Buddhism; manga; movies; Japan; popular culture visitor to Japan will be struck by the large number of manga (Japanese comics) and anime (animation movies) available on the market, as well as their related objects and businesses, such as souvenir items, resin and PVC figurines, and Amanga cafes. 1 These constitute a relevant part of Japan’s cultural industry, as is also evident from the establishment of museums exclusively dedicated to manga. The Kyoto International Manga Museum and the recent Kitakyushu Manga Museum are good examples of the relevance of this genre in Japan.
