Lluís Nansen Salas: Dharma Zen.El ojo de la maravillosa revelación, Ediciones Invisibles, Barcelona, 2019.

A selection of texts from the great Zen Buddhist masters that helps us deepen our understanding of this ancient practice that connects body and mind. The Japanese master Taisen Deshimaru said:
Zen is not a philosophy; it is not something that can be grasped with thought. Zen is a practice, and that practice is zazen, seated meditation; simply sitting, without seeking or expecting anything.”

If the reader wants to understand the true meaning of the texts presented in this book, they must keep this in mind. If they read them without ever having sat in meditation, they will surely still enjoy them—but if they read them after a period of zazen, they will discover meanings that would otherwise have gone unnoticed. In this new book, Lluís Nansen Salas presents the experience of the great masters of the past, a guide to finding our own path within the inconceivable freedom of Zen.

Zen: A Direct Experience

The book places special emphasis on the direct experience of Zen, encouraging readers to practice for themselves, beyond theory. At the same time, it conveys a deep respect for the tradition and for the teachings of the great Zen masters who have transmitted the Dharma over the centuries.

Moreover, the work highlights the relationship between Zen and everyday life. It shows us how this philosophy is not a distant or abstract practice, but rather a way of living rooted in the here and now. This makes it a particularly relevant read for those who seek to integrate spirituality into their daily lives.

In short, Dharma Zen is a book that offers a complete and inspiring introduction to the Zen path, while also providing practical tools to deepen this spiritual discipline. It is an essential work for anyone wishing to explore the Dharma and its application in a contemporary and relatable context.
