Description
The Poetry of Impermanence, Mindfulness, and Joy brings together 125 poetic companions from across the centuries, including ancient Buddhist poets and modern Western voices. This unique anthology offers a wide-ranging collection of poems that reflect the essential truths of the Buddha's teachings.
Expertly gathered, these poems provide a powerful complement to mindfulness practice, both reflecting and embodying the dharma in ways that other forms of writing cannot match. The book includes a short essay on "Mindful Reading" and a meditation on sound, helping readers approach the poems from an experiential, non-analytical perspective.
With a diverse range of poets, including Wallace Stevens, Robert Frost, and Billy Collins, alongside Buddhist poets like Han Shan and Basho, this collection offers a rich and varied exploration of the themes of impermanence, mindfulness, and joy.
