人生是什么?人生的真相如何?人生的意義何在?人生的目的是何?這些人生最重大最中心的問題,不只是古來一切大宗教家哲學家所殫精竭慮以求解答的。世界上第一流的大詩人凝神冥想,深入靈魂的幽邃,或縱身大化中,于一朵花中窺見天國,一滴露水參悟生命,然后用他們生花之筆,幻現層層世界,幕幕人生,歸根也不外乎啟示這生命的真相與意義。宗教家對這些問題的方法與態度是預言的說教的,哲學家是解釋的說明的,詩人文豪是表現的啟示的。
What is life? What are the true nature, meaning and purpose of life? Since ancient times, scholars of religion and great philosophers have strained their energy and intellect to the limit for an answer to these crucial and central questions in life. But they are not alone. The best poets in the world have done the same by contemplating and pondering over the questions, delving into the depth of their souls. They envision Paradise through a flower and the meaning of life in a dewdrop. They, with their gifted words, picture a kaleidoscopic world and acts of the life drama. In the final analysis, their words serve no other purpose than revealing the truth and meaning of life.
