This spring our practice period class will draw upon the riches of Suzuki Roshi’s Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind. Beneath the warm and inviting tone of Suzuki Roshi’s words are boundless depths that appear anew with each reading. Over nearly fifty years of teaching, Sojun Roshi never reached the limits of this book’s Zen wisdom. So, we begin again. We will share a selection of chapters, which will be announced. Practice period
members, in fact all BZC practitioners ought to have a copy of this book. And a pdf of the whole
text can be found at this link.
