Jay Rinsen Weik leads a retreat workshop at the Toledo Zen Center on January 25, 2009."It's said that [Po Chu'i] would read every one of his poems to an uneducated person... but he would make sure that it made sense to people, that at least it was comprehensible in some way. He held to a Confucian ideal that said that poetry is, at some level or other, to educate... not simply just for idle entertainment."
