This enigmatic poem is attributed to Seng-t'san, the third Chinese patriarch of Zen, who died in 606 CE. The tone of the work is revealed in the opening stanza in which the patriarch recommends dynamic introspection as the ideal attitude in solving the apparent problems of life. He urges the seeker neither to become trapped in the "outer entanglements of life" nor to isolate himself in solitude, but to remain calm in the procession of personal vicissitudes, seeing the essential oneness of all things.

प्रेम कितना मोहक, सम्मोहक और मादक होता है.. उसके विभिन्न पड़ावों से गुजरते हुए मैंने यह जाना है। 'मन पतंग दिल डोर' को लिखते हुए मैंने महसूस किया है कि मोहब्बत का कोई मौसम नहीं होता। वो जब हो जाए वही उसका मौसम हो जाता है। यौवन जब आता है तो अनेक मधुर एहसास लिए आता है.. उन एहसासों को शब्द मैंने नहीं दिए हैं बल्कि उन्होंने खुद अपने लिए शब्द चुने हैं।

Columbia is a rich, vivid canvas of heroes and scoundrels, of men and women and their dreams of land, gold, timber, salmon, and power--dreams that begin when a nomad hunter kills a mastodon and ends with an archaeology team working frantically to uncover evidence of that kill before the Columbia's waters rise to cover the past forever--and a family destiny that proves "some things must be believed to be seen."

The classical poetry of Japan focuses on direct experience of fleeting moments, in total contrast with its Occidental counterpart. These seminal poems were passed down orally, before great collections reassembled works of art spanning several centuries in written form as early as the 8th century, from the Kojiki to the Kokinshu. Later, a number of female writers rose to prominence (Murasaki Shikibu, Sei Shonagon); then in the 17th century, the haiku form became extremely popular, in large part due to the work of Matsuo Bashō, a prolific writer and traveler.
