Description

Zen in the Art of Flower Arrangement: The Classic Account of the Meaning and Symbolism of the Japanese Art of Ikebana by Gustie L. Herrigel. Foreword by D. T. Suzuki. 'Gustie Herrigel describes the underlying Zen symbolism in the Japanese art of flower arranging, ikebana. The act of training in ikebana is a process of achieving spiritual enlightenment; the craft of arranging flowers is a form of meditation. Gustie Herrigel's account of her education in ikebana and her gradual understanding of its underlying symbolism is a story of great charm. She teaches the reader the disciplined but artfully natural style of flower arrangement, while providing a perceptive introduction to Zen.'
