Samenvatting
A revered modern artist and Zen teacher offers an inspirational account of how his art has been the expression of a life of social activism.
"Awakening," says Kazuaki Tanahashi, "is to realize the infinite value of each moment of your own life as well as of other beings, then to continue to act accordingly." This book is the record of a life spent acting accordingly: Through his prose, poetry, letters, lyrics, and art, Tanahashi provides an inspirational account of a what it's been like to work for peace and justice, from his childhood in Japan to the present day. Included are fascinating vignettes of the seminal figures who refined his views--among them Daniel Ellsberg, Gary Snyder, Mayumi Oda, and Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of Aikido--as well as striking examples of the art he has so famously used to bear witness to the infinite value of life.
