The most comprehensive collection available of Nyogen Senzaki's brilliant teachings,
Eloquent Silence
brings new depth and breadth to our knowledge and appreciation of this historic figure. It makes available for the first time his complete commentaries on the
Gateless Gate
, one of the most important and beloved of all Zen texts, as well as on koans from the
Blue Rock Annals
and the
Book of Equanimity
. Amazingly, some of these commentaries were written while Senzaki was detained at an internment camp during WWII. Also included are rare photographs, poems reproduced in Senzaki's beautiful calligraphy and accompanied by his own translations, and transcriptions of his talks on Zen, esoteric Buddhism, the
Lotus Sutra
, what it means to be a Buddhist monk, and other subjects. Roko Sherry Chayat has edited Nyogen Senzaki's words with sensitivity and grace, retaining his wry, probing style yet bringing clarity and accessibility to these remarkably contemporary teachings.
