Zen and Mystical Thought By Hugo M. Enomiya-Lassalle Shunjusha Content Description What is the reality of mystical thought that underlies enlightenment and realization? This book compares the realm of Zen, which reaches absolute affirmation through absolute negation, with the mystical experiences of Eckhart, John of the Cross, Tauler, and other representative Western mystics, clarifying the core aspects of these experiences.
