Zen (Chan) is the essence of ancient Chinese civilization, a unique wisdom of Easterners, and the outstanding creation of Zen masters. The wisdom of Zen primarily refers to the wisdom of ascending to a higher spiritual realm, achieving higher enlightenment, and seeking the complete truth. Ancient Zen masters devoted their wisdom and effort to climbing the peak of this truth, striving diligently, making valuable contributions, and leaving a rich heritage that still shines with its brilliant light and immortal charm today. To allow modern readers to taste the sweet fruit of ancient wisdom, the author has compiled this book on Zen wisdom.
This book centers on Zen wisdom and is divided into five parts: Light of Wisdom, Zen Methods of Wisdom, Zen Poetry of Wisdom, Zen Parables of Wisdom, and Zen Quotations of Wisdom. It selects various materials to present the essence and style of Zen wisdom in a concentrated and concise manner.
