«Zen en el arte del tiro con arco» is the philosophy essay by Eugen Herrigel, published by Gaia Ediciones in hardcover (176 pages, in Spanish).
The German philosopher Eugen Herrigel recounts his six years as a disciple of a kyudo master in Tokyo. He narrates how the practice of archery taught him to let go of conscious intention and forced effort, so that the shot arose naturally, and how that experience transformed his view of Zen and of life.
Gaia Perenne collection; introduction by Daisetz T. Suzuki, translation by Juan Jorge Thomas and color illustrations.
For readers interested in Eastern philosophy, Zen Buddhism, meditation and disciplines such as archery.
Eugen Herrigel was a German philosopher, born in Lichtenau. He taught philosophy at Tohoku Imperial University in Sendai, Japan, from 1924 to 1929 and introduced Zen to large parts of Europe through his writings.
