The Poetry of Enlightenment: Poems by Ancient Chan Masters
- Used Book in Good Condition
For the masters of the Chan tradition, poetry was a form of creative expression, but even more than that, it was a primary vehicle for teaching. Here a modern master presents ten teaching poems from the ancient masters, with illuminating commentary. â€œThese poems flow directly from the minds of the enlightened Chan masters,â€ Master Sheng Yen says. â€œWe get a glimpse into their experience at the time of, and after, their enlightenment. It is my hope that this collection of poems will give those who are interested in the practice a new way of looking at Chan.â€
