  • Fun with Tang Dynasty Poetry: “My Villa at Mount Zhongnan” by Wang Wei

    In my mid life I began to love the Buddha Law.I decided to live the rest of my life at the foot of Mount Zhongnan.When I am in the mood for an outing, I wander alone in the woods.I savour the pleasant feelings with no one.I stroll along the brook to its origin.Then I sit down and watch the rising clouds.
