D?gen Zenji was a Japanese Zen Buddhist teacher born in Ky?to, and
the founder of the S?t? school of Zen in Japan after travelling to
China and training under the Chinese Caodong lineage there. D?gen
is known for his extensive writing including the Treasury of the
Eye of the True Dharma or Sh?b?genz?, a collection of ninety-five
fascicles concerning Buddhist practice and enlightenment. The
primary concept underlying D?gen's Zen practice is "oneness of
practice-enlightenment". In fact, this concept is considered so
fundamental to D?gen's variety of Zen-and, consequently, to the
S?t? school as a whole-that it formed the basis for the work
Shush?-gi, which was compiled in 1890 by Takiya Takush? of Eihei-ji
and Azegami Baisen of S?ji-ji as an introductory and prescriptive
abstract of D?gen's massive work, the Sh?b?genz? ("Treasury of the
Eye of the True Dharma"). Dogen is a profoundly original and
difficult 13th century Buddhist thinker whose works have begun
attracting increasing attention in the West. Admittedly difficult
for even the most advanced and sophisticated scholar of Eastern
thought, he is bound, initially, to present an almost
insurmountable barrier to the Western mind. Yet the task of
penetrating that barrier must be undertaken and, in fact, is being
carried out by many gifted scholars toiling in the Dogen vineyard.
