Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Spirituality & Practice Best Books of 2021 Award Winner
In this new collection of quotes from Shunryu Suzuki Roshi and stories from his students, the presence, wisdom, and humor of a great Zen teacher come alive once more.
The teachings of Shunryu Suzuki have served for innumerable people as the gateway to Zen practice and meditation. In Zen Is Right Now, devoted student and biographer David Chadwick sheds new light on Suzuki s presence and teachings through selected quotes from his lectures and a variety of stories told by his students.
Complementary to another collection about Suzuki, Zen Is Right Here, this book offers a joyful bounty of anecdotes and insights, revealing a playful and deeply wise teacher who delighted in paradox and laughed often. Each of the stories and quotes presented here is an example of the versatile and timeless quality evident in Suzuki s teaching, showing that the potential for attaining enlightenment exists right now, in this very moment.
Suzuki challenged [students] to open their minds and face the reality of death while also making space for laughter and playfulness. He urged students to see the meaning present in everyday life, but to avoid getting attached to one s thoughts, preferences, and even one s practice. For Suzuki, the point of Buddhism was not so much about enlightenment, but about sharing in the joy of practice and in learning how to die well. Buddhist readers both new to or already familiar with Suzuki s teaching will find disarming simplicity and great wisdom here. Publishers Weekly
