Paperback. Condizione: Fair. A study of Zen Buddhist enlightenment in nine chapters of Sh?b?genz? D?gen.Sounds of Valley Streams is a study of Zen Buddhist enlightenment in nine chapters of Sh?b?genz? D?gen. Francis H. Cook has translated the nine chapters and has preceded them with four chapters of discussion. These essays show D?gen bringing his religious intensity, philosophical depth, and poetic power to bear on a number of different facets of enlightenment. Using striking images and poetical expressions such as "one bright pearl," "dragon song," "beyond Buddha," and "a painting of a rice cake,"D?gen explores such fundamental matters as the relationship between enlightenment and compassion, the dynamic nature of the enlightened life, the need to go beyond enlightenment, the nature of illusion and enlighten-ment, and what it is like to live the awakened life.The centerpiece of the translation is Genj?k?an ("Manifesting Absolute Reality"). It is a manifesto of the Zen life in which D?gen proclaims the religious insight that stands at the core of everything he wrote subsequently. Cook's translation of Genj?k?an is as accurate as possible, faithful to the original, and readable.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Hua-yen is regarded as the highest form of Buddhism by most modern Japanese and Chinese scholars. This book is a description and analysis of the Chinese form of Buddhism called Hua-yen (or Hwa-yea), Flower Ornament, based largely on one of the more systematic treatises of its third patriarch. Hua-yen Buddhism strongly resembles Whitehead's process philosophy, and has strong implications for modern philosophy and religion. Hua-yen Buddhism explores the philosophical system of Hua-yen in greater detail than does Garma C.C. Chang's The Buddhist Teaching of Totality (Penn State, 1971). An additional value is the development of the questions of ethics and history. Thus, Professor Cook presents a valuable sequel to Professor Chang's pioneering work. The Flower Ornament School was developed in China in the late 7th and early 8th centuries as an innovative interpretation of Indian Buddhist doctrines in the light of indigenous Chinese presuppositions, chiefly Taoist. Hua-yen is a cosmic ecology, which views all existence as an organic unity, so it has an obvious appeal to the modern individual, both students and layman.…
