Sinossi

Heaven and HellFrom Things Heard and SeenBy Emanuel SwedenborgStep beyond the veil of earthly life in this groundbreaking spiritual classic by Swedish mystic Emanuel Swedenborg. First published in 1758, Heaven and Hell offers a vivid and systematic vision of the afterlife based on the author’s claimed direct experiences with the spiritual world. Divided into three profound sections—Heaven, the World of Spirits, and Hell—this work unveils the nature of life beyond death. Swedenborg explores the structure and harmony of heaven, the transitional realm where souls prepare for their final destination, and the self-inflicted torments of hell that stem from a life led by selfishness and vice. Through rich descriptions and moral insight, Swedenborg emphasizes the eternal significance of free will, the enduring impact of earthly choices, and the soul’s journey toward divine truth. Both visionary and deeply human, Heaven and Hell continues to inspire seekers of spiritual wisdom and moral clarity.Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772) was a Swedish Christian mystic, scientist, philosopher, and theologian. A remarkable figure of the 18th century, he is best known for his spiritual writings in which he claimed direct communication with angels and experiences in the afterlife. After a distinguished early career in science and engineering, Swedenborg turned his focus to theology, producing a vast body of work that has had a lasting impact on Western religious thought. His most influential books include Heaven and Hell, Divine Love and Wisdom, and The True Christian Religion. Swedenborg’s vision of the spiritual world—centered on free will, moral responsibility, and the eternal nature of the soul—laid the foundations for the religious movement known as the Church of the New Jerusalem, or Swedenborgianism.

The Five Ranks of Zen - Tozan's...

Gerry Shishin Wick, Norman Fischer

The great Japanese Zen master Hakuin exclaimed, "How priceless is the merit gained through the step-by-step practice of the Five Ranks of Master Tozan!" Hakuin here refers to a teaching created by the Chinese Buddhist master Dongshan, known in Japanese as Zen Master Tozan, which is honored and studied in both Soto and Rinzai schools of Zen and is a gem of the classical Zen tradition. The ranks serve as guides to a radical exploration of the experience of relative and absolute reality, the interpenetrating "Two Truths" of Mahayana Buddhism. 
 
 
 
In The Five Ranks of Zen, American Zen teacher Shishin Wick offers an accessible entry point to each of the ranks, which Tozan created in two formulations: the first and better-known is the Five Ranks of the Relative and the Absolute; while the second set, called the Sequence of Merit, is an abbreviated form of the Ten Oxherding Pictures, a traditional formulation of the Zen spiritual journey. Wick presents multiple translations and offers commentary on the ranks' titles and on Tozan's renowned verses, as well as offering guidance on these teachings' application in contemporary life and Zen practice. He emphasizes that, to truly plumb the depths of Tozan's teachings, you must treat these teachings as Zen koans and make a thorough investigation using your entire body.
