    [EcoDharma] Dōgen’s Vision of the Environment and his Practice of Devotion and Faith

    Hey Zen Greens,

    Taigen Leighton has a lovely, elegantly written essay in a recent collection dedicated to Steve Heine. I think you will dig it ...

    In many of his writings, Eihei Dōgen (1200-1253), considered the founder of the Sōtō branch of Japanese Zen Buddhism, celebrates the natural landscape, sansui, literally mountains and waters. He sees this landscape as an inspiration, but also as an active source and agent of awakening teaching, the Buddha Dharma. While this is implied elsewhere in his writings, one of his essays, Keisei Sanshoku “The Sound of the Streams, the Shape of the Mountains,” serves as an explicit bridge from the realm of nature to the important role of faith, devotion, and religiosity in the practice Dōgen advocates ...
