Synopsis:
The great early Zen master and founder of the Soto school, Eihei Dogen, was one of Zen's most stimulating writers as well as an influential and provocative Zen philosopher.
Kazuaki Tanahashi, collaborating with several other Zen authorities, has produced sensitive and accurate translations of Dogen's most important texts. Moon in a Dewdrop contains the key essays of the great master from Shobogenzo - his most famous work, as well as extensive background materials that will help Western readers approach this significant work. There is also a selection of Dogen's poetry.
Dogen's thought runs counter to conventional logic, employing paradoxical language and startling imagery. It illuminates such fundamental concerns as the nature of time, existence, life, death, the self, and what is beyond self.
"Moon in a Dewdrop is empty and clear at the same time, like the reflection of the moon in a drop of water." San Francisco Chronicle.
"Kazuaki Tanahashi and his colleagues at the San Francisco Zen Center have given us an accessible and comprehensive Dogen in English." Vajradhatu Sun. |
