Plum Blossom Zen - Contemplating Dogen

Plum Blossom Zen transforms Zen Master Dogen (12th century) into contemplative poetry. Tai Sheridan's interpretations bring Dogen's complex Zen wisdom to life and make him accessible to everyone. In Rice Eyes, Dogen reveals himself as a master of mindfulness. Bendowa encourages contemplation until you understand inter-being and the essence of non-dual reality. The selections from Shobogenzo are odes that sing praise in the manner of Walt Whitman to the beauty of nature and things.
