Hakuin on Kensho
the Four Ways of Knowing
Just published....
(from the back cover)
Kensho is the experience of waking up to one's own true
nature - of understanding oneself to be not different from
the Buddha-nature that pervades all existance. The Japanese
Zen master Hakuin (1689-1796) considered the kensho experience
to be absolutely essential. In his autobiography he says: "Anyone
who would call himself a member of the Zen family must first
achieve kensho-realization of the Buddha's way. If a person
who has not achieved kensho says he is a follower of Zen,
he is an outrageous fraud, a swindler pure and simple."
Hakuin's short text on kensho, "Four Ways of Knowing
of an Awakened Person," is a little-known Zen Classic.
Albert Low has provided careful, line-by-line commentary
for the text that illuminates its profound wisdom and makes
it an inspiration for deeper spiritual practice.
