Wu Tzu Poems
About this eBook
Originally written in Aulacese, all of the poems in this collection have been translated into English by The Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association (SMCHIA) Book Department, with guidance from the Author. To provide readers with a glimpse of The Supreme Master Ching Hai’s genuine appreciation for the art of poetry, we have included an excerpt from the translated poem “The Saint” with editing comments by the Poet.
Wu Tzu Poems presents an intimate chronicle of the Poet’s journey in search of the Truth. This undertaking was motivated by Her deep yearning to seek enlightenment for all beings, not just Herself, even at a time when Her life was regarded as highly successful by worldly standards. Each poem marks a step on the passage toward spiritual awakening. But these verses reveal more than just a series of stages; they also reflect the devotion of a great Soul, and as such, touch the true Self or Soul in each of us. We hope that readers who have felt a longing for Home will find a profound echo of their own sentiments within these pages.

About the author
Supreme Master Ching Hai is a world-renowned spiritual teacher, artist and humanitarian, whose loving assistance extends beyond all cultural boundaries. She was born in central Au Lạc (Vietnam), studied in Europe, and worked there for the Red Cross. She soon realized that suffering exists in all corners of the globe, and Her yearning to find a remedy became the foremost goal in Her life. She then embarked on a journey in search of spiritual enlightenment. Eventually, in the Himalayas in India, She received from a true Master the divine transmission of the inner Light and Sound, which She later called the Quan Yin Method. After a period of diligent practice, She attained the Great Enlightenment.
At the earnest request of those around Her, She shared the Quan Yin Method of meditation with others, encouraging them to look within to find their own divine greatness. Supreme Master Ching Hai has also authored books that have become #1 international bestsellers, namely The Birds in My Life, The Dogs in My Life, and The Noble Wilds. Now translated into several languages, these volumes reveal many telepathic and spiritual insights into the deep emotions and thoughts of our treasured animal co-inhabitants, highlighting their gracious spirit and unconditional love.
Supreme Master Ching Hai is among notable pioneers in our society today who wisely and courageously express concern about climate change. She introduced the Alternative Living and SOS global warming campaigns and appeared as honored Guest Speaker at conferences to bring to the public’s attention the root cause of the planet’s current disasters and their prime solution: a compassionate, vegan lifestyle.
