198686597For The Author 1986. First Thus. Quarto. 28.5cm. Comb-bound with red card covers. 147pp. printed rectos only. Clean and strong very little wear; internally clean and fresh with the blindstamp of Nathaniel Tarn to the contents page. A very good bright copy.<br /> <br /> Essentially a xeroxed text examining a very specific part of the observances and discipline of Dzogzen yoga the school that Namkhai Norbu dedicated his teaching life to. Chogyal Namkhai Norbu was one of the last great Tibetan born masters of Yoga born prior to the Chinese annexation of Tibet living much of his life in exile and rising to the position of Professor of Eastern and Tibetan Languages at Naples Eastern University and founder of the Shang Shung Institute School of Tibetan Medicine in Conway Massachussetts itself part of a larger complex for Buddhist studies. This specific work seems difficult to place in Norbu's body of work but fits into the period when he was working on his "Longsal" teachings and it may feature in that larger body of work. This work is not locatable in this form in US instituions/OCLC. For The Author unknown
196174199New York: The First Zen Institute of America Inc 1961. Wraps. Very good. The First Zen Institute of America was founded in 1930 by the Zen master Sokei-an to bring the tradition and practice to the West. Sokei-an heir to the Ryomokyo-kai traditions as taught by Soyen Shaku and his disciple Sokatsu Shaku was the first Zen master to settle permanently in the United States. Following his death in 1945 shortly after his release from a Japanese internment camp Zen Notes was established to keep his insights and perspectives alive.<br/> <br/> For most of its first four decades Zen Notes was edited by Mary Farkas who presided over the institutes during its formative years. In addition to publishing transcripts of Sokei-an's lectures she also wrote about visiting Japanese Zen masters and through excerpts from Ruth Fuller's Letter from Kyoto she kept readers informed about Zen practice in Japan and the growth of Zen in America.<br/> <br/> This collection includes: Vol. I No. 1-12; Vol. II No. 2-8 10-12; Vol. III No. 2-12; Vol. IV No. 1-4 6-12; Vol. VI No. 7; Vol. VII No. 4-6 8-12; and Vol. VIII No. 1-7.<br/> <br/> Early issues are exceedingly uncommon. From the library of Buddhist scholar Robert P. Jackson 1930-2014 with his typed mailing address on most issues. A longtime resident of Marysville California Jackson was a frequent contributor to The American Buddhist. Most notably he wrote the often-quoted article "Buddhism and the Beat Generation" 1957.<br/> <br/> Photomechanically reproduced on light gray paper. All issues measure 7" x 8 ½" and consist of 4 or 6 pages. Most have been folded into thirds for mailing with occasional cellophane tape shadows wear the issue was sealed. Mild staining to one issue with light toning and soiling to others. Overall very good. The First Zen Institute of America, Inc unknown

19217948London / Kyoto: Luzac & Co./ Eastern Buddhist Society 1921. First separate edition. 22x15cm 1 43pp. Red sheep backed cloth boards spine lettered in black. Samuel Weiser ticket at front Luzac & Co ticket at rear original plain wrappers bound in. Some pencil annotations to front blank wrapper page block somewhat toned and with a few edge wrinkles. Very good. <br /> <br /> First separate printing of one of D.T. Suzuki's 1870-1966 influential essays on the training of a Zen Buddhist monk. Suzuki helped spread interest in Eastern philosophy and specifically Zen and Shin Buddhism to the West in the 20th century. This essay first appeared in his Eastern Buddhist journal which was launched after he and his wife founded the Eastern Buddhist Society in 1921 at Otani University and has subsequently been anthologized in many collections on Zen. Interestingly we find mention of this separate printing in catalogs from Luzac & Co the prominent London-based bookseller and publisher of books on the East as early as 1921.<br /> <br /> <br /> In any event it is a scarce publication with OCLC citing holdings only at Columbia Northwestern and the University of Oregon.<br /> <br /> From the library of Blanche DeVries and Pierre Bernard.
