One of the greatest religious practitioners and philosophers of the
East, Eihei Dogen Zenji (1200Â 1253) is today thought of as the
founder of the Soto school of Zen. A deep thinker and writer, he
was deeply involved in monastic methods and in integrating Zen
realization into daily life. At times The Shobogenzo was profoundly
difficult, and he worked on it over his entire life, revising and
expanding, producing a book that is today thought to be one of the
highest manifestations of Buddhist thought ever produced. Dogen's
Genjo Koan is the first chapter in that book, and for many
followers it might be thought to contain the gist of Dogen's workÂ
it is one of the groundwork texts of Zen Buddhism, standing easily
alongside The Diamond Sutra, The Heart Sutra, and a small handful
of others.Our unique edition of Dogen's Genjo Koan (Actualization
of Reality) contains three separate translations and several
commentaries by a wide variety of Zen masters. Nishiari Bokusan,
Shohaku Okamura, Shunryu Suzuki, Kosho Uchiyama. Sojun Mel
Weitsman, Kazuaki Tanahashi, and Dairyu Michael Wenger all have
contributed to our presentation of this remarkable work. There can
be no doubt that understanding and integrating this text will have
a profound effect on anyone's life and practice.
