Summary note
Grassroots Zen envisions a socially engaged Buddhism where zazen is integrated each day with work, family, and social obligations.Though both authors have practiced traditional Zen for decades here they eschew the militaristic, patriarchal tendencies of Zen in favour of "an egalitarian community of socially mobile members who place less emphasis upon transmission and hierarchy than on individual responsibility." --Back cover.
