Shikantaza: An Introduction to Zazen book by Okumura Roshi Sensei

Post by Zenkonin »

Dear Friends,

I am looking for the book ''Shikantaza: An Introduction to Zazen'' by Okumura Roshi Sensei. I would like to buy it, however it is not available anywhere.
I also don't know if there is a reprint or the ebook available anywhere.

Thank you kindly for any kind of help in regard to this book.

Gassho,
reiun

The Okumura book is available for a small fortune on abebooks.com or ebay.com. But Puget Sound Zen Center's librarycat.org lists it as available on that link.

Thank you very much. I do know that book. However, this is the content from the original book.

Thank you, I saw that before, however is it available for the borrowing online? Honestly, I don't know how it works.
