Drawing on Whalen's journals and personal correspondence-particularly with Ginsberg, Kerouac, Snyder, Kyger, Welch, and McClure -David Schneider shows how deeply bonded these intimates were, supporting one another in their art and their spiritual paths. Schneider, himself an ordained priest, provides an insider's view of Whalen's struggles and breakthroughs in his thirty years as a Zen monk. When Whalen died in 2002 as the retired Abbot of the Hartford Street Zen Center, his own teacher referred to him as a patriarch of the Western lineage of Buddhism. Crowded by Beauty chronicles the course of Whalen's life, focusing on his unique, eccentric, humorous, and literary-religious practice. 606 $aBeat generation 606 $aPoets, American$y20th century 606 $aZen Buddhists 610 $a1950s. 610 $a1960s. 610 $aabbot of hartford street zen center. 610 $aamerican poetry. 610 $aamerican poets. 610 $abeat biography. 610 $abeat generation. 610 $abeat poetry. 610 $aben fagan. 610 $abio. 610 $abiography. 610 $abuddha. 610 $abuddhism. 610 $abuddhist poetry. 610 $acalifornia. 610 $aginsberg. 610 $akeruoac. 610 $anamthar. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $aphilip whalen. 610 $apoetry. 610 $apoets. 610 $areligion. 610 $areligious poetry. 610 $areligious practice. 610 $asan francisco renaissance. 610 $asan francisco. 610 $aspirituality. 610 $astudents and teachers. 610 $averse. 610 $awarren coughlin. 610 $awest coast. 610 $awestern buddhism. 610 $azen buddhists. 610 $azen monk. 615 0$aBeat generation. 615 0$aPoets, American 615 0$aZen Buddhists. 676 $a813/.54 700 $aSchneider$b David$f1951-$01531525 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788108003321 996 $aCrowded by beauty$93777259 997 $aUNINA
