Gary Snyder writes of his friend the late Zen Priest, Zenshin Philip Whalen, "Philip never left his poetry, his wit, or his critical intelligence behind; his way of poetry is a main part of his teaching. Philip always the purest, the highest, most dry, and oddly cosmic, of all the teacher-poets I've known."
