Old Sage, New Robes

詳細資訊

This is a book by two masters, one ancient and one contemporary, both enigmatic. The lives of Confucius and Master Nan Huai-Chin (Nan Huaijin), in many ways, parallel each other. Both lived through tumultuous times, both had to leave their home state and wander only to return in old age to their birthplace. They were teachers, learned in many fields and arts and in life itself, but not scholars in the traditional sense; rather, they were masters of all they engaged in. They had students from all walks of life, were advisors of statesmen of all ranks and were flanked by loyal followers. They both seamlessly wove together the worldly and the spiritual. And both were most concerned about the decline of people’s virtue, the deterioration of the culture, and of the general order of society. I believe this is why Master Nan could go beyond the words of the ancient texts to see the man who spoke them, to understand the events of those ancient times, and to grasp the significance of his life’s work.

Master Nan Huai-Chin
Master Nan is considered one of the greatest contemporary spiritual Masters. Born in China in 1918, Master Nan's profound understanding of the Dharma was verified by several Chan and esoteric Buddhist Masters. He is considered a foremost expert in Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Chinese philosophy, history and other aspects of Chinese culture. He is the author of over 80 books that have sold over a billion copies in Chinese-speaking countries.

Everything changed when Pia Giammasi met Master Nan in Hong Kong in 1988. Her world turned upside-down, inside out, and expanded exponentially by being enveloped into the enlightened reality of Master Nan. Pia had the privilege of doing oral translation for Master Nan for nearly 30 years and is currently working on written translations of his books.
