What is Zen Bow, Zen Arrow : The Life and Teachings of Awa Kenzo, the Archery Master From Zen in the Art of A Rchery about?

<p><P>Here are the inspirational life and teachings of Awa Kenzo (1880&#8211;1939), the Zen and kyudo (archery) master who gained worldwide renown after the publication of Eugen Herrigel's cult classic <i>Zen in the Art of Archery</i> in 1953. Kenzo lived and taught at a pivotal time in Japan's history, when martial arts were practiced primarily for self-cultivation, and his wise and penetrating instructions for practice (and life)&#8212;including aphorisms, poetry, instructional lists, and calligraphy&#8212;are infused with the spirit of Zen. Kenzo uses the metaphor of the bow and arrow to challenge the practitioner to look deeply into his or her own true nature.</p>
