Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the author's personal journey, the book explores the intersection of Zen philosophy and the practice of Kyudo, a traditional Japanese archery form. Through his experiences in 1920s Japan, Herrigel reveals how archery serves as a spiritual discipline, emphasizing mindfulness and the connection between body and mind. This work played a pivotal role in introducing Zen concepts to Western readers in the mid-20th century, making it a significant cultural bridge.
