Hong Zicheng was a Chinese philosopher who lived during the end of
the Ming Dynasty.
Robert Aitken is the author of more than a dozen books about
Buddhism, including A Zen Wave, Encouraging Words, and Taking the
Path of Zen. A dedicated Buddhist for most of his life, he is a
former abbot and roshi of the Honolulu Diamond Sangha in Hawaii,
which he co-founded with his late wife Anne Hopkins Aitken in 1959.
He now lives in retirement at the Palolo Zen Center in Honolulu.
"As an author, intellectual, and historical figure, Aitken knows
how important transmission of information can be."
"It can be enjoyed merely for its sage advice and for the charm of
the Chinese idiom that Aitken and Kwok have preserved."
