I've read that they can be purchased in the larger temples as either a book or pamphlet. They are used in divination in or around the temples. Hangzhou and Pu To are particularly associated with Kuan Shi Yin. My own dream trip to China is at least three years in the future. But I would like to read/translate these poems now. Is there anyone who will be visiting a major temple in the near future and who would be willing to purchase a copy of these poems and mail them to me? I would be happy to reimburse the person for expenses and compensate them for their time. Does anyone have an alternative suggestion for how I can obtain a copy of these poems, given that I can't travel to China at this time? Xiexie
