Abstract | Sangharakshita and Subhuti’s article of 2010, ‘Re-imagining the Buddha’, explores the importance of imagination in the spiritual life. Dhivan explores the background to that article, which is the thought of Coleridge and German idealist philosophy. He goes on to evoke the illustrate the nature of imagination with reference to The Prelude, the poetic biography of Coleridge’s friend Wordsworth. He then explores how this romantic conception of imagination might be found in the teachings of the Buddha recorded in the Pali canon, especially in the term sati, usually translated ‘mindfulness’. |
