Famous quotes with Zen buddhism

• There are things that I value now that I didn't when I first went over there, like Zen Buddhism, which has become part of my life over the last couple years.

  Matthew Sweet
• Zen Buddhism is a discipline where belief isn't necessary.

  David Sylvian
• In the literature on Zen Buddhism, there are writers such as Suzuki, whose authenticity is beyond doubt--he speaks of what he has experienced. The very fact of this authenticity makes his books often difficult to read, because it is of the essence of Zen not to give answers that are rationally satisfying. There are some other books which seem to portray the thoughts of Zen properly, but whose authors are mere intellectuals whose experience is shallow. Their books are easier to understand, but they do not convey the essential quality of Zen.

  D. T. Suzuki
• Suzuki's works on Zen Buddhism are among the best contributions to the knowledge of living Buddhism… We cannot be sufficiently grateful to the author, first for the fact of his having brought Zen closer to Western understanding, and secondly for the manner in which he has achieved this task.

  D. T. Suzuki
