Subtle Sound: The Zen Teachings of Maurine Stuart

Maurine Stuart was one of a select group of students on the leading edge of Buddhism in America--a woman who became a Zen master. In this book, she draws on down-to-earth Zen stories, her friendships with Japanese Zen teachers, and her experiences as a concert pianist to apply the inner meanings of Buddhism to practicing the basic ethics of daily living--nowness, unselfishness, compassion, and good will toward every living being.
