Movie Reviews of The Zen Mind
Movie Review: The Zen Mind
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a useful overview of Zen practise in Japan. It reviews Soto and Rinzai temples across Japan, offering footage from both. There are quite a few interviews with different Abbotts or senior monks, giving a flavour of each temple's approach. It was inspiring to see the roots of the tradition I practise and to get a sense of the bigger picture in that respect. Lay training was also acknowledged, which was helpful.
Summary of The Zen Mind
This is a DVD and plays in all regions worldwide. The Zen Mind is a journey across Japan to explore the practice of Zen. We reveal the daily routine of a zen monk and take you inside the walls of the zen monastery and into a world never imagined by outsiders. Step inside the zendo or meditation hall, where the monks sit in zazen - searching for the middle path to enlightenment - it is a long hard journey. Every aspect of zen is uncovered - from a zen center in the middle of the bustling streets of Tokyo, to the mountains above Kyoto. Includes interviews with major zen masters and roshi.Similar DVD Movies
