Exploring the lives of five influential Zen teachers, this book delves into their teachings and personal journeys within the context of Antaiji monastery. It contrasts their experiences with those of Western students grappling with Zen and Japanese culture. By addressing the tendency to idolize Zen masters, it offers a grounded perspective on their humanity, revealing the complexities of their lives and the cultural backdrop that shapes their roles as Zen masters in Japan.
