i prefer the autobiography offered in wild ivy -- it feels much more to the point as a teaching instrument. i do appreciate the flow tho of keeping "night boat" together instead of splitting off the preface like "wild ivy" does. the eponymous "mirror cave" is a good primer for the relationship bw yogachara and zen koan practice, but didnt get quite as deep as i hoped

Hakuin Zenji (1689-1769) is a towering figure in Japanese Zen. A fiery and dynamic teacher and renowned artist, he reformed the Zen Rinzai tradition, which had fallen into stagnation and decline in his time, revitalizing it and ensuring its survival even to our own day. Hakuin emphasized the importance of zazen, or sitting meditation, and is also known for his skillful use of koans as a means to insight: the most famous of all koans, "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" is attributed to Hakuin.

This is the first English translation of Hakuin's intimate self-portrait. It includes reminiscences from his childhood, accounts of his Zen practice and enlightenment experiences, practical advice for students on the problems that arise in intensive meditation practice, and the only description of a technique he calls "introspective meditation."

A fiery and intensely dynamic Zen teacher and artist, Hakuin (1685–1768) 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 “What is the sound of one hand clapping?” As an artist, Hakuin used calligraphy and painting to create “visual Dharma”—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 “breaking through the Zen barrier.” Included are reproductions of several of Hakuin’s finest calligraphies and paintings.… (altro)

> HAKUIN - Moi, Bouilloire à portée de main - Ed l'Originel. — 1749 : Publication de l'Ortegama. Mais le titre est demeuré "incompréhensible" jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Nous savons simplement que Hakuin avait ainsi pris l'habitude d'appeller sa bouilloire bien aimée. L'éditeur a donc traduit "l'Orategama" par : Moi, Boulloire à portée de main car, toujours placée auprès de Hakuin, elle fut le témoin de ses pensées et de ses actions quotidiennes. En décembre 1768 il meurt à 84 ans. Son zen n'est pas celui, professionnel, du moine, mais s'étend au Samouraï et au Laïc en les faisant plus se communiquer entre eux. Ainsi le zen de Hakuin et plus adapté à la civilisation chimique et industrielle que le zen traditionnel. Il est un authentique témoignage, dans cette philosophie spiritualiste bouddhiste, d'un pont essentiel entre vie de méditation et vie active.La Bouilloire est le 1er tome de 5 ouvrages à venir.

> Hakuin, Ortegama tome I : MOI, BOUILLOIRE À PORTÉE DE MAINS ;
Id., Ortegama tome II : lâcher de mains au bord du précipice.
Cet ouvrage (2 tomes) nous présente un des grands textes de la spiritualité Zen, écrit par Hakuin (1685-1768). Celui-ci - un des plus grands maîtres Zen du Japon - nous exhorte à une pratique du Zen adaptée au quotidien, à la vie active et sociale. Pour lui, seules une vie attentive (« la contemplation intérieure est essentielle, c’est à dire la culture » - de la terre intérieure, s’entend) et une recherche énergique (« le maintien de la conscience authentique est de l’exercice véritable ») peuvent nous amener à « voir en sa propre essence », c’est à dire à s’éveiller.

> Le Zen de Hakuin semble particulièrement intéressant pour nous, car plus adapté à la civilisation économique et industrielle d’aujourd’hui que le Zen traditionnel »
