About this listen

One of the world's leading authorities on Zen Buddhism, D. T. Suzuki was the author of more than a hundred works on the subject in both Japanese and English, and was most instrumental in bringing the teachings of Zen Buddhism to the attention of the Western world. Written in a lively, accessible, and straightforward manner, An Introduction to Zen Buddhism is illuminating for the serious student and layperson alike.

Brilliant narration of a perfect text

Rarely have I ever listened to a narration so perfectly attuned to the text. Rintoul brings out the stunning presentation of Zen in D.T. Suzuki’s introduction. I have more than seven hundred titles in my library and this is one of the best. The content here really brings Zen alive. Suzuki’s presentation shines a brilliant light on the fundamentals of this school of Buddhism.
