Book Description: The beginner's mind of Zen Buddhism is revealed through profoundly simple wisdom and authentic Zen art, called Zenga. Featuring text from the calssic book Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind, and Zenga art from the world renowned Gitter Yelen collection, this calendar is destined to become a classic. Each month features a Zenga masterwork from the Japanese Edo period by monk artists like Hakuin, Fugai and Sengai, paired with a quote from the best selling Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind. Shunryu Suzuki (1905 1971), author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind, (published by Weatherhill) which has sold over 1,000,000 copies worldwide since it was first published in 1970, was a direct spiritual descendent of the thirteenth century Zen master Dogen. He taught in America from 1959 unitl his death in 1971, and was undoubtedly one of the most influencial Zen teachers of his time. Zenbga art, Zen inspired brushstroke art, surprises and confounds our expectations. These masterworks were created by monks who were amateur painters and who used the paintings as a means to illustrate Zen principles. Although created two and three hundred years ago they have a startlingly modern appeal. The Gitter Yelen collection of Zenga painting is widely regarded as one of the preeminent collections in the West.
