内容紹介本書は日本の禅を伝える総合的な英文写真集です。建仁寺をはじめ19 の京都の禅寺の歴史を魅力的な写真とともに解説します。座禅体験プログラムや精進料理など、日本の禅の歴史と芸術、文化についての解説も充実しています。著者は龍谷大学教授のジョン・ドゥーギルと『Kyoto Journal』創刊者兼編集者のジョン・アイナーセン。序文にはTED TALK KYOTO にも出演し、海外でも活躍される京都春光院副。 住職の川上隆史氏に寄稿頂きました。 This Japan travel guide presents a journey into the true heart of the Kyoto experience—one which brings you deep into the world of Kyoto's ancient Zen Buddhist culture.This is the first comprehensive guide to Kyoto's most important Zen garden and temple sites. Kyoto's Zen heritage represents one of mankind's greatest achievements—recognized by the large number which have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Millions of visitors travel to Kyoto yearly in search of their secrets, and here for the first time is a comprehensive overview of every major site. Over 50 Japanese temples and gardens—including all World Heritage Sites—are captured in sensitive photos by acclaimed Kyoto-based photographer John Einarsen. A detailed introduction to each temple by local expert John Dougill includes information about special opportunities for visitors to the temples—such as early morning meditation sessions, temple food offerings and special green tea sets provided to enhance the contemplative experience—along with other "insider" information that no other guide provides. The foreword by Takafumi Kawakami, the deputy head priest of the respected Shunkoin Temple in Kyoto, serves to place the book in the context of eastern and western Buddhist thought and practice. His widely viewed TED Talk "How mindfulness can help you to live in the present" has been viewed by over 100,000 people.レビュー"The words and images herein do not necessarily serve to suggest physical destinations or metaphysical assumptions; rather, they reflect an ancient, accidental, and inarticulate wisdom passed down through human consciousness which flows like a river of unknown origin." —Preston Keido Houser, Shakuhachi maestro"This is a work that should be sampled slowly, in portions, like consuming a number of small dishes for their nutritional value. The authors provide us with a selection and analysis of some of the most prestigious Zen temples, monasteries and abbotsAE quarters in the city, as well as the gardens that accompany them." —Stephen Mansfield, The Japan Times"For those who are new to Zen, this is a perfect guide to Kyoto's wealth of gardens and temples. And even for a Japanese Zen priest like myself, it offers a different and new way of appreciating Zen in the city. This is highly recommended for those who want to go deeper into the Zen world." —Reverend Daiko Matsuyama, Taizo-in Temple, Kyoto"Zen Gardens and Temples of Kyoto is a feast, whose authors, both connoisseurs of Kyoto's spiritual culture, bring Kyoto's deep Zen heart vividly to life. Einarsen's luminous, intimate photographs and Dougill's concise and penetrating historical perspective combine to create a sublime, grounded, indispensable volume. Whether you love Zen, Asian beauty, or Kyoto, this is a book to treasure, a book you must own." —Grace Jill Shireson, Zen priest and author of Zen Women: Beyond Tea Ladies, Iron Maidens, and Macho Masters"Whether for general reference or as a travel companion when visiting a garden, this beautiful book helps orient our attention to the values, symbols, and teachings of Zen. The harmony of insightful commentary and stunning photos brings to life the histories and aesthetics of Kyoto's rich Zen Buddhist heritage." —John Nelson, Professor of East Asian Religions, University of San Francisco"To endeavor writing a book on Zen gardens and temples in Kyoto must be daunting! John Dougill stepped up to the task and put out an exquisite book. His eloquent text coupled with John Einarsen's timeless photos capture the essence of actually 'being there.' Both novice and expert will find this book a pleasure to read." —Randy Channell Soei, Urasenke tea master and Kyoto Ambassador of Hospitality"This book will cause the reader to ponder as to whether it is a superb photography book or a book of unique writings with photographs. Indeed, it is both. John Einarsen's photos, taken over many years, amply illustrate the refined technique and designs of Zen, while John Dougill's writings, inclusive of the stories behind the temples, show them not simply as "holy cloisters" where celibate monks lived, but include the thinking that went into their building as well. This book is a must for those interested in the aesthetic as well as the human aspects of Zen in this remarkable city." —Daitsu Tom Wright, Soto Zen Buddhist priest and author of Samadhi on Zen Gardens"This splendid book results from the combined efforts of a superb photographer and a knowledgeable writer. For those who cannot visit the actual temples, the stunning pictures and informative text offer a good sense of what a visit might be like. For those fortunate ones who have a chance to visit Kyoto, it offers valuable insights that will help them better understand what they see. Anyone interested in Japanese culture will enjoy this book." —Robert Borgen, Professor Emeritus, Japanese Religions, University of California Davis商品の説明をすべて表示する

An absolutely beautiful book, complimented extraordinarily well by in depth discussion of Zen, it's history, growth, practice and use in architecture and garden design.Many will buy this book as a coffee table souvenir containing pictures much more beautiful than the ones that they captured. Hopefully many of those will take time between sips of coffee, or matcha, and read the details contained here, which are some of the most simplified and accessible, yet in depth and knowledgeable, yet to appear in English.This is a book that gives you a little escape into the world of Zen, even if you never get to most of these places, and without the aches and pains in your legs from Zazen. Or for those with a chance to get/ get back to Kyoto, the details of the temples, and especially the available food and services, will give you an experience of Kyoto that the passing masses in their busloads are less likely to obtain.Highly recommended! A visual and intellectual delight.
