My Christian Journey with Zen

In this spiritual memoir, Gustav Ericsson shares reflections and glimpses into the story of how he learned to stop and sit down, be still and listen. Crafted around a travel journal from a reflective trip to Japan, My Christian Journey with Zen is an expression of how meditation practice has grown in both his life and work as a hospital chaplain. Ericsson studied and was ordained under Zen Master Gudo Nishijima in Japan, and was later ordained as a priest in the Lutheran Church of Sweden. He lives with his family in Ume , in northern Sweden.
