Summary: An essential piece of the puzzle
Review: For those who are not familiar with Shunryu Suzuki, this tape may not be helpful. For those like myself who chronically read "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind", this recording of Suzuki's lectures is a fascinating piece of the puzzle in the mystery. Listening to his halting, lapidary but sometimes humorous speech, I got an unusual connection to the real person and got an inkling of why he viewed "Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind" as the understanding of his disciples - not as his understanding.
