The life and inspirational teachings ofAwa Kenzo,the Japanese master archer first introduced in the martial arts classic Zen in the Art of Archery

A Zenand kyudo (archery) master,Awa Kenzo (1880-1939) first gained worldwide renown after the publication of Eugen Herrigel's cult classic Zen in the Art of Archery in 1953. Kenzo lived and taught at a pivotal time in Japan's history, when martial arts were practiced primarily for self-cultivation, and his wise and penetrating instructions for practice (and life)-including aphorisms, poetry, instructional lists, and calligraphy-are infused with the spirit of Zen. Kenzo uses the metaphor of the bow and arrow to challenge the practitioner to look deeply into his or her own true nature.
