Zen in the way of the bow: About the power from which we live - Kurt Österle
Kurt Österle, Zen and bow teacher, is the first person in Germany to offer the practice of zazen with archery as a path of experience.
"If the bow is broken, then - shoot!" was the first, long out-of-print work by the author and experienced Zen teacher, who in this book invites readers to rediscover the fascinating Zen path of archery for themselves. Far more than hitting the bullseye, of course, it is about recognizing oneself and learning to let go of one's own blockages and difficulties. Accompanied by texts, lectures and meditations from Zen practice, the focus is on the joy of experience, the growth of trust and the love of being. With this holistic approach, the art of archery becomes a fulfilling and loving path of inner liberation that encourages us to take the next arrow peacefully and unerringly, even in times of crisis.
His new, second book (the first "Wenn der Bogen zerbrochen ist, dann - schieß!" is long out of print) is about recognizing yourself and letting go of your own blockages and difficulties.
Accompanied by texts and meditations from Zen practice, he encourages us to walk the path of inner liberation with joy and self-confidence and to take the "next arrow" peacefully and safely in our hands, even in crises.
"Those who practice only to hit better, take the easy way."
