Sit is the record of a teaching. given during a month-long retreat held in France under the direction of the renowned Japanese Zen Master, Taisen Deshimaru. The book reveals Deshimaru’s powerful and blustery energy, his humor and sensitivity, his enormous insight into the nature of the mind and his uncompromising standard of meditation practice. An asset to both beginners and long time students of Zen. This book will be both, instructive and motivational. Nevertheless, its greatest gift lies in the subtle and powerful experience of zazen, which the Master’s words convey.
