Title: The Zen Way - Tradition, Transmission, Challenges by Ama Samy
Description:
Zen has come to stay in the West. But there are some vital questions over Zen Transmission to the West. First, what sort of legitimacy has it? Is it authentic? How rooted can it be in the new land? This brings us to the question of Christianity and Zen. Does Zen need Christianity? Or, Christianity need Zen? Is Zen religious at all? Can a Christian be a Zen Master? There are questions of ethics, and of therapy: Has therapy conquered Zen in the West? Zen has had a poor record as regards ethics and justice. Should Zen now become an engaged Buddhism? Finally, in Zen Transmission to the West, what is central, and what is peripheral? These are some of the questions touched upon in this probing and challenging book of AMA Samy.
