    Extractions: Although Zen, from its beginnings, has not been "dependent on words or letters," there has developed over the centuries a body of what might be called "Zen literature," composed of collections of koans, Zen dialogues, anecdotes, sermons and biographies and autobiographies of Zen masters, all of which are treasured by students and teachers of Zen as repositories of Zen wisdom. Matsuo Basho (1644-1694) was the poet who lifted the 17-syllable haiku out of the earlierand longerforms of waka and renga poetry to make of it a genre in its own right. During his lifetime several poets, principally Kikaku, Ransetsu, Kyorai, Joso, Kyoroku, Shiko, Sampu, Yaha and Hokushi, became his devoted students, embodying in their own poetry the aesthetic principles Basho had taught them. Thus a poetic tradition was established, and was passed on through the generations. It is generally believed that Basho was trained as a Buddhist monk at Kinpukuji in Kyoto during the years 1666-1671, where his studies included Japanese and Chinese classics and calligraphy. In 1672 he moved to Edo (Tokyo), where he became actively engaged in writing poetry. Throughout the years of his residence in this city (1673-1684) he also practiced Zen meditation under the guidance of Buchho, a priest residing at Chokeiji Temple.

    Extractions: (click here for a page from the LOST coloring book!) I was playing around with sequences, and I thought I would screw around with the Shaw-Basho Polynomial: I plugged into the polyomial to get 4, and then I plugged in 1 to get 12, etc. I got the following infinite sequence of numbers: 4 12 35 89 213 511 1194 2622 5346 10150 18093 ... (goes on forever) Not too interesting, eh? Then I wrote out the differences of succeeding numbers in the sequence. For example, 12 - 4 = 8, 35 - 12 = 23, 89 - 35 = 54, etc. 8 23 54 124 298 683 1428 2624 4804 7943 ... (goes on forever) I kept doing this process. The third sequence began 23 - 8 = 15, 54 - 23 = 31, etc. When you keep going, something completely unexpected happens! Here - I've done the work for you: SEQUENCE 1: 12 35 89 213 511 1194 2622 5346 10150 18093 ... (goes on forever)

    Extractions: We're incredibly proud of this book, the first anthology of LitKicks writings including selections from our poetry and fiction boards. The book was listed as a top poetry pick for 2004 by about.com. Bob Holman states that LitKicks has "found a new way to make an anthology open, free, and eternally interesting." Some of the best known poet-monk-travelers include Sogi (1421-1502) and Saigyo (1118-90), as well as the Chinese poet Li Po (705-762). But it was the Japanese poet Basho (1644-94) who perhaps had the greatest influence on those who followed him. This is because Basho is credited with reviving an art form that was expiring to superficiality at the time the haiku Born outside of Kyoto, Matsuo Kinsaku was the son of a low-ranking Samurai. Little is known of his early years. However, after writing verse as a child, Matsuo moved to Edo (present day Tokyo) where he worked towards establishing himself as a writer. He quickly became a central figure in the burgeoning literary scene of Edo, writing numerous hundred-verse renkus (with another poet), presiding over haiku contests and producing anthologies of verse.

    Extractions: Basho's JOURNEY This small piece is entirely impossible to be translated. The occasion it had been written is clear, for Matsuo Basho left record on a volume of sheets. The volume became known as Oku no Hoso Michi ; where Oku, meaning a far side, was a name given vaguely to the north-eastern half of Japan. The poet went to the journey early in 1689; he was on it until late fall that year. This piece was written down when his journey came virtually to its end. He spent his last years finishing the volume; he deceased in 1694 when it was done. Above all what has been said, Basho was a man who saw life a journey. Every journey has one thing in common: it has to end. If you have somebody near you who is familiar with the Japanese language, the person might be able to explain the literal meaning of it. But the person has to be the one who knows life better. Of course, the best thing is you start learning it. You may download it at here . It is in ".gif" format, 9 Kbytes in size.

Although his initial influences were Frank Zappa and Mahivishnu Orchestra , it was Leo Kottke who inspired Junghans's first major epiphany. Junghans decided to pursue steel string and 12-string acoustic guitar composition and soon became a prominent figure in the East German music scene. In 1981 he founded an annual "all-style" guitar festival in Potsdam. It was the first guitar festival in Germany to focus on experimental and alternative styles. It later moved to Berlin to reach a wider audience.

    Extractions: Even in Kyoto hearing the cuckoo's cry I long for Kyoto. A crow has settled on a bare branch autumn evening. The crane's legs have gotten shorter in the spring rain. Weathered bones on my mind, a wind-pierced body. This road - no one goes down it, autumn evening Another year gone hat in hand, sandals on my feet. The old pond a frog jumps in sound of water. The winter sun on the horse's back my frozen shadow. Seeing people off, being seen off autumn in Kiso. A cold rain starting and no hat so? Singing, flying, singing the cuckoo keeps busy. Visiting the graves white-haired, leaning on their canes. Midnight frost I'd borrow the scarecrow's shirt. When the winter chrysanthemums go there's nothing to write about but radishes.

    Extractions: upon the water it lies. Matsuo Basho was a Japanese poet who became famous by writing haiku poetry. Basho was born in 1644. He was a samarai in his youth, but when he became 22 in 1666, he decided to devote his life to the writting of poetry. Basho's original name was Munefusa but when he needed solitude, he would withdraw into his basho-an which is a hut made of leaves. That's how he got the name Basho. Basho is considered a master of the haiku form, and the influence of Zen Buddhism helped him to infuse a mystical quality into many of his poems. Basho tried to express universal themes by using simple natural images. Later in life, Basho traveled and saw things that inspired his contemporary poetry. Home Page Famous Poets Page

He was born in Iga-ueno near Kyoto in 1644 and at a early age entered the service of the samurai Todo Yoshitada. During this time he began to write poetry and in particular hokku or haiku - miniature poems comprising of seventeen syllables. After Yoshitada's death in 1666 it is likely that Basho moved to Kyoto. By 1672 he had he moved to Edo (modern day Tokyo) where he continued to pursue his writing and also taught haiku and judged haiku competitions. It was here that he had the first of his three huts in a remote location near the Sumida River. Basho's original name was Matsuo Kinsaku but he changed it to 'Basho' - after he was presented with a wide leafed banana tree (or basho tree) by one of his disciples. Although the tree is rare in Japan and the climate too cold for it to bear fruit, Basho liked it because of its large, soft leaves. The basho tree appeared frequently in his work:
