In a poetic reflection from an awakened insight, the 13th-century Zen master Keizan Jokin wrote, 'Most people want to have pure clarity, but sweep as you will, you cannot empty the mind.' On Breath Sweeps Mind, Jakusho Kwong-roshi presents his inspired response to this Zen teaching to offer you a 'Zen that lives with you in your everyday life.' You can practice this right now. Join this dharma successor to the late Shunryu Suzuki-roshi as he opens you to the world as seen through the eyes of a true Zen master, and the liberation we find in just sweeping. A Return to Your Original Nature The enso, or Zen circle, demonstrates the intimate heart of Zen, illustrating how the spiritual journey is actually already complete no matter where you begin. From this perspective, Zen practice is not so much about learning something new, but simply returning to the wisdom or light that you originally possess: your Buddha nature.

I was fortunate enough to have spent a week at Sonoma Zen Center about 10 years ago. Kwong-Roshi impressed me then and continues to impress me more as time goes. That being said, if you are looking more for a theoretical treatise or historical prospective, I would point you elsewhere (Alan Watts - The Way of Zen is where I started and would recommend) However, if you have spent time with Kwong-Roshi in the past, or are more interested in 'feeling' as opposed to intellect understanding, this is very good, and very Zen. Kwong-Roshi is at all times is the embodiment of equanimity, and his very human stories, are both calming and full of humor.
The very title 'Breath Sweeps Mind' has been an amazingly useful image (and what led me to purchase it). Many teachers and books tell you to concentrate on your breath, and refocus every time your mind wanders off.
This method can work, but it gave me headaches, and while I did manage it eventually, it was more of an ordeal than it was worth. But now, we have a wonderful image of 'Breath Sweeps Mind' and instead of CONCENTRATING:(, I imaging the breath blowing through the open window of my mind, sweeping out the 'thought leaves'.
