John Stevens is the author or translator of over twenty books on Buddhism, Zen, Aikido, and Asian culture. He has practiced and taught Aikido all over the world. His books include Lotus Moon: Poems of Rengetsu and Wild Ways: Poems of Ikkyu.

I found "Mountain Tasting" for the first time in The East West Bookstore on 5th Ave. near 13th street in Manhattan, NY in the 80s (and have no idea if the bookstore is still there...). Just so much real pleasure from the title into the poems and travels of Santoka Teneda (I just had to edit my review (!) because I jumbled "Mountain Tasting" and "The Selected Poems of Li Po" another fine volume). The skill to be here now and also able to set it down in poetry/haiku as alive as the moment it was experienced....priceless :>) Just leave it around and jump in and out of it at your leisure and to get some relaxation.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This became the perfect form for Santoka’s gifts By Glenn J. Shea And last, coming into the modern period, Santoka Taneda. The late master Masaoka Shiki had brought the sights and emotions of the contemporary world into the traditional form of haiku; after his death in 1902, a second school of practice broke off, the shinkeiko, varying the syllabic pattern and jettisoning the worn-out requirement of the season word. This became the perfect form for Santoka’s gifts. He lived as a mendicant Zen priest, without home or much in the way of possessions, and had a devouring taste for sake. His emblematic poem was: “Days I don’t enjoy: / Any day I don’t walk / Any day I don’t drink sake / Any day I don’t compose haiku.” Surely here the biography is the work: Santoka’s mendicancy gave him to experience and to commemorate those moments of vision that are peculiarly the domain of the way of haiku. But remember, he was walking through the period of Brian Victoria’s ZEN AT WAR as well as the eternal landscape of Japan—the unease of modernity is in them, the darkened background of Santoka’s travels. John Stevens has translated a wonderful selection, MOUNTAIN TASTING: Haiku and Journals of Santoka Taneda (White Pine Press, 2009, in their splendid series Companions for the Journey). Beware of it. It may be, in its quiet, implicit way, as thorough a gauntlet thrown in the path of modern life as poetry may leave for you to find.Glenn Shea, from Glenn's Book Notes at www.bookbarnniantic.com
