Though Zen is best known for the practices of koan introspection and “just sitting,” or shikantaza, there are many other practices transmitted in Zen lineages. This book reveals and details, for the first time, a treasury of “direct pointing” and internal energy cultivation practices preserved in the Rinzai Zen tradition. The twenty-eight practices of direct pointing offered here illuminate one’s innate clarity and, ultimately, the nature of mind itself. Over a dozen practices of internal energetic cultivation galvanize dramatic effects on the depth of one’s meditative attainment. Hidden Zen affords a small taste of the richness of authentic Zen, helping readers grow beyond the bounds of introspection and sitting to find awakening itself.
