A remarkable collection of essays, Shobogenzo, "Treasury of the Eye
of True Teaching," was composed in the thirteenth century by the
Zen master Dogen, founder of the Soto Zen school in Japan. Through
its linguistic artistry and its philosophical subtlety, the
Shobogenzo presents a thorough recasting of Buddhism with a
creative ingenuity that has never been matched in the subsequent
literature of Japanese Zen. With this translation of thirteen of
the ninety-five essays, Thomas Cleary attempts to convey the form
as well as the content of Dogen's writing, thereby preserving the
instrumental structure of the original text. Together with
pertinent commentary, biography, and notes, these essays make
accessible to a wider audience a Zen classic once considered the
private reserve of Soto monks and Buddhologists. Readers from many
fields in the sciences and humanities will find themselves richly
rewarded.
