Three Pillars of Zen 5
I first read Roshi Philip Kapleau book on the summer of 1980. I feel it is still one of the most informative books wriiten on Zen Buddhism. I am sure it must be considered a classic by now. I find myself pulling this book off my shelf every few years and re-reading it. I feel that it is one of the few books written that introduce westerner's to the journey along the road of zen.

Then, if you have done this well, you can truly forget this book and forget yourself.

The three pillars of Zen3
Certainly not for the beginner.I found I had to look up the words at the back if the book before I could finish the paragraph. It would be a good book for the more experienced
