The path to achieving Zen (a balance between body and mind) is excellently explained by Professor Eugen Herrigel in this classic narrative. This book is the result of the author's six-year quest to learn archery from Japanese Zen masters.
It is an honest account of a man's journey towards complete surrender of the "ego" and the Western principles we use to define ourselves. Professor Herrigel shares insights from his experiences and guides the reader through physical and spiritual lessons with clarity and depth.
Learning archery is not the key to achieving Zen, and this book is not a practical guide to archery. Rather, it is a guide to the principles of Zen and learning, ideal for both enthusiasts and beginners.
