The Collected Works of Zen Master Heshan with His Broom is a Zen Buddhist text from the Qing Dynasty, composed by Zen Master Heshan and recorded and compiled by his disciple Defu. Completed during the Qing Dynasty, this work reflects the practice style and transmission of Zen thought of that period. Its contents primarily consist of Zen Master Heshan's recorded sayings, teachings, poetry, and the Zen insights revealed through his daily work with the broom, embodying the practical spirit of integrating farming with Zen practice and realizing the Way in everyday activities. Within Buddhism, it stands as an important Zen document, inheriting the Linji school's style, using plain language to point directly to the mind. It holds significant reference value for the study of Zen development and practice during the Qing Dynasty, offering later learners an accessible guide to Zen cultivation.
