{"product_id":"zen-mind-beginners-mind-50th-anniversary-edition","title":"Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind : 50th Anniversary Edition","description":"\"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few.\" So begins this most beloved of all American Zen books. Seldom has such a small handful of words provided a teaching as rich as has this famous opening line of Shunryu Suzuki's classic. In a single stroke, the simple sentence cuts through the pervasive tendency students have of getting so close to Zen as to completely miss what it's all about. An instant teaching on the first page. And that's just the beginning. In the thirty years since its original publication, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind has become one of the great modern Zen classics, much beloved, much re-read, and much recommended as the best first book to read on Zen. Suzuki Roshi presents the basics--from the details of posture and breathing in zazen to the perception of nonduality--in a way that is not only remarkably clear, but that also resonates with the joy of insight from the first to the last page. It's a book to come back to time and time again as an inspiration to practice.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAuthor: Shunryu Suzuki,author\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Shunryu Suzuki,author\u003cbr\u003eBinding: paperback\u003cbr\u003eNumber Of Pages: 176\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: \u003cbr\u003eLanguages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis\u003cbr\u003eEdition: Anniversary\u003cbr\u003ePublished\/Release Date: 2 Jun 2020\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003ePublisher\/Studio\/Brand: Shambhala Publications Inc\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Director\/Artist: Shunryu Suzuki\u003cbr\u003eDimension (cm): 209x134x13 mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage Dimension (cm): 16x209x134 mm\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight (g): 210\u003cbr\u003ePackage Weight (g): 209","brand":"Shambhala Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53410833170729,"sku":"BK1611808413","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/5868\/0105\/files\/9781611808414.jpg?v=1786282109","url":"https:\/\/www.centloop.com\/en-us\/products\/zen-mind-beginners-mind-50th-anniversary-edition","provider":"Centloop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
