The Reception of Japanese Zen Tradition in Europe and America
Abstract
The article deals with European, American and Japanese Zen temples. I consider various types of Zen centers in the West: big monasteries, local Zen dojos and Buddhist-Christian communities, - and various types of their activities. The main goals of Zen practice in the West are analysed as compared to Japanese Zen Buddhism. In the West there are practices for development of mindfulness, of the sense of presence here and now, and some rites which are traditional for Zen. In Japan the latter is the first. Then the monks follow their training to enter the family of patriarchs and only on the last place some techniques to know one’s own self are. Japanese and Western Zen tradition is also considered from the point of genzeriyaku notion and in relation with concepts of Ego in Western and Japanese cultures.
