An introduction to Zen unlike any you've seen before--inspired by manga and graphic novels.

The Complete Illustrated Guide to Zen offers a comprehensive overview of Soto Zen Buddhism in a delightfully captivating way. Complete with dynamic, detailed illustrations, Soto Zen Priest Seigaku Amato uses a semi-narrative style to take you on a visual tour of Buddhism and, using specifics to illuminate universals, dives deep into the practices and forms of Soto Zen.

- a brief history of Buddhism,
- an iconographic overview of various buddhas and bodhisattvas,
- an introduction to the various practices of Zen including meditation (zazen), work practice (samu), and meditative eating (oryoki),
- a what's what of holidays, ceremonies, temple instruments, and religious vestments, and
- a how-to guide for setting up a home altar.
