About this listen

Dear Friends,
Contrary to a popular belief, Zen is not a discipline reserved for monks practicing Kung Fu. Although there is some truth to this idea, Zen is a practice that is applicable, useful, and pragmatic for anyone to study regardless of what religion you follow (or don’t follow).

Zen is the practice of studying your subconscious and seeing your true nature.

The purpose of this work is to show you how to apply and utilize the teachings and essence of Zen in everyday life in the Western society. I’m not really an “absolute truth seeker” unworldly type of person - I just believe in practical plans and blueprints that actually help in living a better life. Of course, I will tell you about the origin of Zen and the traditional ways of practicing it, but I will also show you my side of things, my personal point of view, and translation of many Zen truths into a more “contemporary” and practical language.

It is a “modern Zen lifestyle” type of book.

I invite you to take this journey into the peaceful world of Zen Buddhism with me today!

You will learn about:

  • Where Did Zen Come From? - A short history and explanation of Zen
  • What Does Zen Teach? - The major teachings and precepts of Zen
  • Various Zen meditation techniques that are applicable and practical for everyone!
  • The benefits of a Zen lifestyle
  • What Zen Buddhism is NOT?
  • How to slow down and start enjoying your life
  • How to accept everything and lose nothing
  • Why being alone can be beneficial
  • Why pleasure is NOT happiness
  • Six Ways to practically let go
  • How to de-clutter your life and live simply
  • "Mindfulness on Steroids"
  • How to take care of your awareness and focus
  • Where to start, and how to practice Zen as a regular person
  • And many other interesting concepts....

A good starting point.

Zen is for all times . it's not something one practice weekly or monthly or simply whenever it involves mind. Simply put, Zen may be a lifelong way of life. I totally enjoyed listening the book and learning the way to apply the practices. Now I can begin a healthier way of life. Definitely a requirement read.

I really enjoyed this.

I really enjoyed this. I've meditated here and there and that i was really trying to find some clarity. My favorite part is that I learned a replacement technique that I didn't know I needed.

This audio book is really awesome!

I found this such a deeply moving book! The author explains to us all about different meditation practices right from the fundamentals to the more advanced levels. this is often for anyone curious about meditation as a practice, also as someone with just an off-the-cuff interest.A deeply moving book, i like to recommend it to everyone!

It's a excellent audiobook for beginners who are new Zen. It's within the sort of question and answer to just about the foremost common questions people have about Zen as a philosophy, religion, or way of life.

Extremely helpful

As someone struggling to find a way through a series health 'situation' this book has given me that "ah ha" moment. Meditation and changing my way of thinking will be such a better way to live (in the moment). Thank you for sharing the content of your book.
