About this product

Product Information

Here is a unique contribution to the field of poetry: a new collection of works by America's foremost Buddhist meditation master, Chö gyam Trungpa. These poems and songs-- most of which were written since his arrival in the United States in 1970-- combine a background in classical Tibetan poetry with Trungpa's intuitive insight into the spirit of America, a spirit that is powerfully evoked in his use of colloquial metaphor and contemporary imagery. Most of the poems were originally written in English-- clearly the result of the author's own perceptions of new forms and media offered to him by a different culture. Each poem has its own insight and power, which come from a skillful blend of traditional Asian subtlety and precision combined with a thoroughly modern vernacular. Several of the author's calligraphies accompany the collection.

Excellent bookseller! He gave me a full refund and then proceeded to ship the book to me. He wrote, in explanation, that while preparing the paperback for shipping, he noticed some pencil markings in the first few pages and had not mentioned that in the item description. The markings were minimal, and I wouldn't have complained, but, I'm sure, some would. Nevertheless, the bookseller is obviously a consummate professional.
