Spring Thunder
By Hua-Ching, Ni. 6" x 9", 139 pages, paperback. The first
thunder of Spring is the signal for all lives to awaken from deep hibernation
and begin anew. Nature progresses effortlessly from one season to the next,
but on a subtler level, humans also need to be periodically awakened from
a spiritual hibernation in which the awareness of life's reality is deeply
forgotten. This book contains the teaching of Yen Shi, the border official
to whom Lao Tzu imparted his wisdom as he traveled west in times of great
confusion and uncertainty not unlike our own. These teachings, along with
other practices, may be the thunder that can awaken your own inner life. |
