Zen and Philosophy: The Kyoto School

The West has long made a distinction between philosophy and religion, but East and South Asian practices like Zen (and others) don’t feel the need for this binary division. Look closer at how Zen emphasizes a holistic approach to both practicing and understanding its tenets and see why Zen is more than an intellectual exercise. Learn about the Kyoto School and its approach to acknowledging philosophy as a part—but not the whole—of Zen Buddhism.
