Jewish Dharma: A Guide to the Practice of Judaism and Zen

Books like theJew in the Lotushave helped to define the intersection of Jewish and Zen experience and custom. Now, in the first guide to thepracticeof both Judaism and Zen, Dr. Brenda Shoshanna, a long-time practitioner and student of both, shares her insights with over one million people who identify as "JuBus," as well as Jews, Zen students, non-Jews, and everyone in the interfaith community who seeks understanding, meaning, and a life grounded in these authentic faiths. Each chapter ofJewish Dharmafocuses on common issues that introduce disorder to our lives, using personal narrative, parables, quotations from both Jewish and Zen scriptures, anecdotes, and exercises. Specific guidelines and exercises help readers integrate both practices into their everyday lives-and thereby gain deeper understanding and happiness.Shoshanna, Brenda is the author of 'Jewish Dharma: A Guide to the Practice of Judaism and Zen', published 2008 under ISBN 9781600940439 and ISBN 1600940439.
