Big Mind Big Heart by Dennis Genpo Merzel

This book presents a highly original and accessible pathway to self-discovery and personal liberation. Since 1999 the Big Mind process has been experienced by many thousands of people in seminars across America. Big Mind employs a Jungian voice dialogue technique that enables people to step out of limited self-concepts into awareness of their many different sub-selves (emotions/mental states). In addition to exploration of the more familiar sub-voices like anger and fear, author Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel uses this technique to help people access the ever-present Big Mind/Big Heart awareness - the clear, just being awareness and the unconditional compassion that we all can experience. The Big Mind process is now available in book form to bring readers of all backgrounds many benefits including: access to our innate wisdom, compassion and equanimity; openness of mind and ability to shift perspectives; greater presence and empowerment; and appreciation for the wisdom within all of our many sub-selves even ones we tend to dislike or disown, like fear and anger.

Dennis Genpo Merzel became a Zen teacher in 1980 after studying under Zen Master Taizan Maezumi. In both the Soto and Rinzai Zen lineages, he is one of a limited group of Westerners who have been honored. Genpo Roshi created Big Mind, a self-discovery method that has been experienced by thousands of people across North America with Europe, in 1999 by combining western psychology and Zen. His work is informed by a great respect for traditional Zen, which he has studied and taught for more than four decades, as well as his continual investigation of methods to incorporate the wisdom and insights of both East and West into everyday life.
