Hello, I’m looking for book recommendations for a beginner. I have been studying Theravada Buddhism for a few years now and am an active member of a local sangha but have always been interested in zen. I thought about Watts, but it seems there’s a lot of malice on here about reading something that “isn’t zen”. I have also read “Zen Questions” by Leighton but it seems that Dogen isn’t zen and he was talking about something else? I guess what I’m asking is, what would you recommend as a good introductory text for someone that may not even know the terminology on zen yet? Something like “What the Buddha Taught”, but obviously for zen.
