For the Chinese master Huangbo Xiyun (d. 850), the mind is enlightenment itself if we can only let go of our normal way of thinking. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe celebrated translation of this work by John Blofeld, \u003ci\u003eThe Zen Teaching of Huang Po\u003c\/i\u003e, introduced countless readers to Zen over the last sixty years. Huangbo's work is also a favorite of contemporary Zen (Korean: Seon) Master Subul, who has revolutionized the strict monastic practice of koans and adapted it for lay meditators in Korea and around the world to make swift progress in intense but informal retreats. Devoting themselves to enigmatic questions with their whole bodies, retreatants are frustrated in their search for answers and arrive thereby at a breakthrough experience of their own buddha nature. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Bird in Flight Leaves No Trace\u003c\/i\u003e is a bracing call for the practitioner to let go and thinking and unlock the buddha within.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Seon Master Subul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1614295301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781614295303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wisdom Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 1.30d","brand":"Seon Master Subul","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43991713087743,"sku":"9781614295303","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e468886b-4ac7-4cd6-9b0e-76e7bfae3d64.jpg?v=1683311796","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-bird-in-flight-leaves-seon-master-subul-9781614295303","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
