The ZEN Ox-herding Pictures

The Path to EnlightenmentBy Zensho W. KoppNarrated by Martin Ki

The ZEN Ox-herding Pictures

Length2h 46m

About this audiobook

This classic of Zen literature from the twelfth century belongs to the fundamental and essential works of Zen Buddhism. The book portrays the spiritual path to realisation by means of a story, illustrated in picture and verse, of an ox-herder searching for his lost ox – his true self. Zen Master Zensho's invaluable annotations are an expression of his enlightened consciousness – exceptionally clear, readily understood and true-to-life. They are highly practical and a unique orientation aid on the path to self-realisation. Zensho's enlightening explanations give us a new opening to a clear understanding of the mystical meaning of the Ten Ox-herding Pictures of Zen.
