"Zen weil wir Menschen sind“ (Zen, because we are human beings)

Fumon Roshi's book "Zen weil wir Menschen sind“ was published by Theseus in May 2003 in a second edition. Fumon Roshi shows in this book which meaning Zen can have in our times. He also shows western people a way to overcome misunderstandings of dealing with this foreign culture and spirituality.  Emmanuel Jungclaussen, Abbott of Niederalteich, said:" There are more concise books on Zen but hardly a more concrete and honest one and therefore more helpful for westerners." The special appeal of the book is Fumon Roshi's personal view that is part of the book.

It is also very helpful for people who have already been practising for a long time and want to meditate at home under Fumon Roshi's guidance. It starts with a 10 minute meditation, followed by a lecture about the meaning of spiritual tradition for today's practice. The following meditation "In Out" supports the practitioners with the development of compassion and loving kindness. A recital of the Japanese heart sutra and Fumon Roshi playing the Shakuhachi round off the introduction to Zen meditation.
