About this product

Product Information

Very little has been published to date on China's rich traditions of Buddhist meditation. Inspired by the need to increase meaningful interaction between China and the West on spiritual issues, modern meditation master Hsing Yun here brings this vast legacy to life in straightforward and engaging language. Professor McRae's introduction to the world of Chinese Buddhism helps place these instructions in their wider context.

Reviews
Timely and very welcome. Anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of Chinese Buddhist practice, or looking for a new approach to help refresh their own practice, this book will be invaluable., This is an interesting book, well worth studying... [it] contains something of practical advice for all Buddhists, whatever tradition they practice., There are two particular points of interest about this book: one is the non-sectarian approach to the teachings which are drawn from throughout the Chinese Buddhist tradition; the other is the emphasis Master Hsing Yun places on moral training and its connection with meditation and wisdom., Master Hsing Yun is one of the most prominent Buddhist teachers in modern China, and he brings considerable scholarship and experiential knowledge to this slim volume...He is thus comfortable advocating many different types of meditation as potential roads to enlightenment, explaining the practices of koan meditation, the eight samadhis, contemplation of the Buddha's body, and others. There is useful stuff in this book for all who are interested in cultivating their meditation practice., Provides valuable insight into the distinct practices and traditions of Chinese Buddhism, still little known in the West., Accessible, clear, compelling, and very helpful...[like] a friend guiding a blind companion along an unknown mountain path.
