Praise for this book in its former incarnation

Zen Is Right Here was originally published as To Shine One Corner of the World: Moments with Shunryu Suzuki. That's the cuke.com page for this book. Go there to read the intro, see examples and outtakes of the vignettes in the book.

6-16-12 - From yesterday's Who Is Meditating? : There is a Burmese saying, "You are not meditating, meditation is meditating."

Reminds me of:

"Don't ever think that you can sit zazen! That's a big mistake! Zazen sits zazen!"
