His work is one of the glories of Chinese poetry's golden age, and
it has not ceased to delight readers in the twelve centuries since.
Li Po (701-762) wrote of the pleasures of nature, of wine, and of
the life of a wandering poet in a way that speaks to us across the
centuries with remarkable intimacy--and that special, timeless
quality is one of the reasons Li Po became the first of the Chinese
poets to gain wide appreciation in the West. His influence is felt
in the work of artists as diverse as Ezra Pound and Gustav Mahler.
J. P. Seaton's translations--which include some poems that appear
here in English for the first time--bring the poet vividly and
playfully to life, and his introductory essay broadens our view of
Li Po, both the poet and the man.
HOW DO WE VERIFY THE TEACHINGS? These Teachings are as old as Man,
and according to them, man has been in physical embodiment on
Planet Earth for 18 million years, since Lemurian times or the last
third of the 3rd Root Race. There has never been a time on Earth
when the Teachings were not available somewhere. All books that
claim Great Antiquity including the Bible are a Translation or a
Distillation of a previous Work. The Higher Teachings have remained
Hidden, for the most part, since the Fall of Man, since the time
when we were all individually able to walk and talk with Angels and
Higher Beings. In the Beginning we were aware of our Higher Self
and then Earth and Humanity began to densify. Because there is a
Hierarchy for this planet as there is for every planet, star and
celestial body, that Hierarchy was allowed to interpret the Law
from a level of Absolute Clarity of Vision into practice on the
planet while still allowing the use of Free Will for humanity.
There could be no evolution, or learning, without the possibility
of choice. In the Divine Plan, all was a covenant from the
beginning.
