“Our way of sitting is for you to become yourself.”
From the beloved author of Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind comes a new book of teachings on the essence of Zen practice.
A new collection of talks by Shunryu Suzuki Roshi, compiled by Sojun Mel Weitsman and Jiryu Rutschman-Byler, is a warmhearted teaching on a practice that is fundamentally about becoming yourself. In his inimitable style, filled with humor and insight, Becoming Yourself speaks directly to the newest beginners while also serving as a touchstone and a continual source of inspiration for even the most experienced practitioners and Zen teachers.
Please join us for a reception with Abbott Jiryu to celebrate the book’s release. Copies of the book will be available for purchase.
A reception with light food and drink will follow.
