Beschreibung:
Eihei Dogen (1200-1253) was the founder of the Soto Zen school in Japan. A prolific writer, his masterwork, the 95-chapter Treasure of the True Dharma Eye (Shobogenzo)--of which Bendowa comprises the opening chapter--is considered one of the seminal works in Buddhist literature and a classic among religious and spiritual writings.
"Dogen's famous text on Zen practice comes alive in the hands of a modern meditation master." --Carl Biefeldt, Professor of Religious Studies, Stanford University and author of Dogen's Manuals of Zen Meditation
