Description

Explore the personal journey of a Zen priest through the pages of The Wild, White Goose. This Routledge Library Edition provides a rare look into the life of Reverend Jiyu-Kennett, documenting her years of religious training in Far Eastern temples. Originally published in two volumes in 1977 and 1978, this work serves as a primary resource for understanding how Buddhist training was practiced in the Far East. Based on eight years of detailed diary entries, the book tracks her evolution from a student to a Zen priest and eventually a teacher running her own temple. Readers gain direct insight into her spiritual growth and the realities of monastic life. This text is an essential addition for those interested in Zen Buddhism, religious history, and the personal narratives of female spiritual leaders.
