POEMS and STANZAS Of the unsurpassable Awakening Sandó Kaisen ThesePoems and Stanzas on the Unsurpassable Awakeningwere written in the course of two days, spontaneously, naturally, without any hindrance. Coming from the very depths of being, they have appeared in accordance with the variations of the creative spirit and its incessant changes. The writing is in turn, either brutal or gentle, austere or colored, always energetic, with just what is needed of aggressiveness in the spirit of the Masters of the past. As Kaisen often says: “When I direct a conference, be it for one person or five hundred, my mind is always whole and makes no categories. Whether in one or two hundred and fifty stanzas, it is always the Source of Awakening, immeasurable and illimited, which expresses itself. They all come from the power of ZAZEN and the merits of ZAZEN, are infinite. They are the sublime fruit, offered without exception, to all beings.” This book is a sequel toPoésies d’un moine fou, Poems of a Crazy Monk, published in different countries of the East, where Kaisen develops an important mission for the last twenty-five years. ThesePoems and Stanzas on the Unsurpassable Awakeningwere written from April the 16th to the 18th of 2010, at the temple of the “Pic Lumineux”, Temple of the Luminous Peak, in the Dordogne.
