Taneda Santoka spent 16 years of his life as a mendicant Zen priest: It is estimated that he walked about 28,000 miles during his life as a monk. His life was filled with tragedy, he tried to commit suicide numerous times, and at the end he drank himself to death at the age of 58. One of his most powerful poems is the 53rd experiment of Naviar Haiku.
