Zen Buddhism; Psychotherapy

In this text, the author - a practicing psychotherapist - explores the challenges and joys of making our life a coherent whole. Psychotherapy addresses our sense of fragmentation in an effort to help us be uniquely ourselves. Zen Buddhist practice insists we find ourselves on every moment of our lives; it speaks to the basic connectedness of all things. This book attempts to intergrate the two. Each chapter takes a short Buddhist text and explores what it teaches about the obstacles and openings inherent in practicing psychotherapy. Through the stories of his clients' and his own difficulties and discoveries, the author invites each reader to actualize the fundamental point: to realize the joy and compassion that comes when we touch the basic ground of life, and put it into play in our everyday activity.
