The author of this complete collection of poems is a world-renowned art master, writer, poet and humanist. This book includes the entire content of the author's three previously published poetry books: The Collection of Thoughts, Mirage, and Meditation at the Foot of the Himalayas . Among them are the internationally acclaimed long epics: The Kiss of a Poppy Flower, Mirage and the recently published, magnificent long epic Meditation at the Foot of the Himalayas.
The poet uses extremely sensitive language and, guided by his intuition, carries out a spiritual journey full of imagination and humanity. It extensively displays life, history, emotions, thoughts and regional cultures rich in humanistic feelings. The content includes both ordinary daily life scenes and major historical events that are of great significance to human society.
Through sometimes extremely subtle and sometimes extremely grand imaginations, these poems express a broad and far-reaching humanistic vision and are the most outstanding poems of our times! Starting from specific realistic scenes, the poet unfolds extended descriptions layer by layer, gradually entering the level of the spiritual world, visualizing the spiritual illusion into a real and perceptible visual image, and performing it from different angles and levels. The profound analysis of human nature presents a deep humanitarian spirit and deep humanistic care, and demonstrates the author's deep humanistic thoughts and qualities as a humanist.
In this barbaric world where science and technology are relatively advanced, but humanistic ideas are very backward or even regressive, and it calls itself a civilized society, the development of science and technology has brought more disasters and unpredictability to mankind. The ugliness, selfishness, greed, division and alienation of human nature are fully exposed. The poet's humanistic vision is a unique cultural phenomenon that exists as a rebellion against the contemporary decadent mainstream culture. These poems not only reveal human nature in a broad sense, but also reveal the split, alienation and depravity between the spirit and human nature of our era, and explore the possibility of redemption of the human spirit. Therefore, they are not only the most outstanding contemporary poems, but also outstanding works with the most humane thoughts and humanistic care in contemporary literature.
In this Second Edition, the author has made some necessary changes both to the text style and the content with full attention for aesthetic satisfaction.
