Editor’s note

All references to the Author’s Essays in Zen Buddhism,Series One and Two, and to his Introduction to ZenBuddhism, are to the second edition of these works, published in “The Complete Works of D. T. Suzuki.”

PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION

In my Introduction to ZenBuddhism(published 1934), an outline of Zen teaching is sketched, and in The Training of the Zm Monk(1934) a description of the Meditation Hall and its life is given. To complete a triptych the present Manual has been compiled. The object is to inform the reader of the various literary materials relating to the monastery life. Foreign students often express their desire to know about what the Zen monk reads before the Buddha in his daily service, where his thoughts move in his leisure hours, and what objects of worship he has in the different quarters of his institution. This work will partly, it is hoped, satisfy their desire. Those who find my Essaystoo bulky or too elaborate may prefer these smaller works on Zen.
