The Spiritual Autobiography of Zen Master Hakuin
Hakuin is the most important of the Japanese Zen artists; indeed, he is one of the greatest artists of any kind in world culture. Tremendously creative and productive, creating perhaps as many as 20,000 thousand Zenga in his lifetime as well as having thousands more pieces printed from woodblocks Hakuin's work is now appreciated all over the world.
“Norman Waddell presents the cranky, impassioned master Hakuin with
an uncanny sense of Right English. Now we know you, old
Hakuin.”—Robert Aitken, author of The Practice of Perfection and
Taking the Path of Zen
“A rich and rare glimpse into a Zen master's comments on his own
spiritual journey, translated for the first time. A welcome and
recommended addition to the canon of Zen literature available in
English.”—Library Journal
