"For centuries, the Blue Cliff Record has stood as one of the preeminent scriptures of the Zen Buddhist tradition in China, Japan, and Korea. However, until now there has been no published commentary by a contemporary Zen Master to assist readers in understanding its counterintuitive and sometimes baffling teachings. The Garden of Flowers and Weeds draws on contemporary scholarship and the author's extensive experience with Zen to offer new insights for students looking to uncover the secrets of the Koan tradition. Unlike previous editions, The Garden is jargon-free and uses personal stories with appeal to a wide range of Buddhists as well as those new to Buddhism"--Provided by publisher.
