Beat generation is a group of American Buddhist poets whose writing evidences the reach of Hua Yen Buddhism in the world. Beat generation poets like Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, Phillip Whalen, Jack Kerouac, Michael McClure, etc, have been greatly influenced by Zen and Hua Yan Mahayana Buddhisms, the principles of which have been included in their poetry to a large scale. Accordingly this study analyses a selection of poems by the above poets in order to understand how they have been influenced by Hua Yen Buddhism, what Hua Yen Buddhist principles they have included and those principles will be compared with Theravāda Buddhism. The current study falls into the category of qualitative genre of research for which the data is collected from the above poets and Hua Yen and Theravāda Buddhist canon.
