Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in Great Britain. First Printing. Frontispiece (by 'Hasuko'), Publisher's Foreword, Preface, Part One: "Beyond the Intellect", Part Two: "Tales of Tokuzan"; 121 pages, followed by a page of information on the Buddhist Society. The jade-green cloth is very good---with only a tiny tear at the top of the spine; gilt lettering is as bright as if just issued. The interior is fresh, crisp and completely clean. The original pictorial dust jacket is price-clipped with a sunned spine and a small closed tear at the top; there is also a faint fingerprint spot---visible in one of the 5 images of the actual book. From the Foreword: "This writer alone, in my experience, has found for himself and learnt to use the technique of the Chinese Masters of Zen. Here is no thought, as we in the West regard that term, no striving to build with concept the roofless palace of no-thought. Here is a simple, humble and direct approach to each person, each thing and each situation by a delicately poised Zen mind. Here is the whimsical, imaginative mode of self-expression which reveals none the less the rapier thrust of direct experience." As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.…
