| Abstract | A thought provoking introduction to Chan (Chinese Zen) through the teachings of the influential Master Sheng-Yen. He visited Britain on two occasions and conducted intensive retreats. This book provides a full and clear explanation and exposition of the teachings of a Master of Chinese Buddhism, a rare opportunity to explore and understand the practice of a Chinese Zen Retreat and a fascinating first hand account of the experience of the little known practice of 'Silent Illumination' The evocation of the retreat atmosphere and practice is powerfully conveyed as the reader explores the meaning of Chan in the world of today. |
