Description

Explore a new perspective on Zen/Chan with this scholarly work from Routledge. This book initiates a paradigm shift by moving away from viewing Zen/Chan as purely Buddhist. Instead, it examines the unique and original elements of Chan thought and practice through an interdisciplinary lens. Readers will learn how enlightenment is achieved through specific Chan practices and how these methods differ from other forms of Buddhism. The text provides a fresh view of Chan by combining historical scholarship and philosophical inquiry with textual analysis. This study also integrates psychological studies, Chan practice, and neuroscientific research to locate the core of Chan. It is an essential resource for those interested in the Routledge Studies in Asian Religion series and anyone seeking a deep understanding of the nature and rationale behind Chan enlightenment.
