Book Review: An Introduction to Zen Buddhism. In "An Introduction to Zen Buddhism", one of his most popular and respected works, Suzuki explains concepts and terminology such as satori, zazen, and koans, as well as the various elements of this philosophy. But while Mr. Suzuki takes nothing for granted concerning the reader's understanding of the fundamentals, he does not give a merely rudimentary overview. All of his insights, particularly regarding the elements of the unconscious mind and the relation of Zen philosophy to traditional Western philosophy, go far beyond other philosophical and religious sources for their penetrating clarity and timeless wisdom. What is most important about D.T. Suzuki's work, however and what comes across so powerfully in this book, is his unparalleled ability to communicate the experiential aspect of Zen. 6 pgs. 4 f/c. 1b.
