Wisdom of the East is a classic Buddhist novel created by Shinran Shonin and later, translated by S.Yamabe And L. Adams Beck. It is a peculiar fact that, despite the fact that many of the earlier Buddhist Scriptures have been translated by qualified scholars, the later Buddhist devotional writings have received relatively little attention, despite the fact that the development of Buddhism in China and Japan has made them of particular interest as a reflection of the spiritual outlook of those two enormous nations. The Wisdom of the East is a book written by S. Yamabe and L. Adams Beck. Its meaning can be found wherever the human heart shines with love’ - B. Alan Wallace, author of 'Buddhism with an Attitude: The Tibetan Seven-Point Mind-Training'. For more than a half-century, the spiritual philosophies of the East - from India to Japan, from yoga to Buddhism - have influenced our lives in the West. Leading teachers, authors, and practitioners of the main spiritual traditions with roots in Asia are among the fifty authors in this captivating anthology who share their favorite teaching tales and poems as well as the lessons they learned from them. This combination brings together simple ’turning words’ and the sustaining, practical insights they inspire.
