22,83 €
A fiery and intensely dynamic Zen teacher and artist, Hakuin (1685&ndash 1768) is credited with almost single-handedly revitalizing Japanese Zen after three hundred years of decline. As a teacher, he placed special emphasis on koan practice, inventing many new koans himself, including the famous &ldquo What is the sound of one hand clapping?&rdquo As an artist, Hakuin used calligraphy and painting to create &ldquo visual Dharma&rdquo &mdash teachings that powerfully express the nature of enlightenment. The text translated here offers an excellent introduction to the work of this extraordinary teacher. Hakuin sets forth his vision of authentic Zen teaching and practice, condemning his contemporaries, whom he held responsible for the decline of Zen, and exhorting his students to dedicate themselves to &ldquo breaking through the Zen barrier.&rdquo Included are reproductions of several of Hakuin&rsquo s finest calligraphies and paintings.
