Working from existing translations, Thomas Merton composed a series ofpersonal versions from his favorites among the classic sayings ofChuang Tzu, the most spiritual of the Chinese philosophers., Chuang Tzu, who wrote in the fourth and third centuries B.C., is thechief authentic historical spokesman for Taoism and its founder Lao Tzu(a legendary character known largely through Chuang Tzu's writings).Indeed it was because of Chuang Tzu and the other Taoist sages thatIndian Buddhism was transformed, in China, into the unique vehicle wenow call by its Japanese name -- Zen. The Chinese sage abounds in wit,paradox, satire, and shattering insight into the true ground of being.Father Merton, no stranger to Asian thought, brings a vivid, modernidiom to the timeless wisdom of Tao.
