About This Item

Singapore: Asiapac, 1994. 107 pp, 8 1/4" H. B&w cartoons. "The 28th Indian Zen Patriarch, Bodhidharma, made a fateful trip to China in 527 AD. The Zen teaching he introduced flourished in a foreign country and reached its Golden Age in Tang China whereas Buddhism was to eventually die out in the land of its birth. Orthodox Buddhism was often under attack in imperial China as being an alien philosophy. However, Zen flowered because it remained down-to-earth and it addressed the consciousness common to all humanity regardless of race or culture. Tsai Chih Chung traces the origin and development of Zen in China with a light-hearted touch which is very much in keeping with the Zen spirit of absolute freedom and unbounded creativity." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - minor edge wear.. Reprint.. Soft Cover. Near Fine. Illus. by Tsai Chih Chung..
