One of the clearest presentations I have run across on Master Dogen vision of goalless practice and Just Sitting, by Teacher Henry Shukman. Recommended for Dogen fans, well worth the hour. It was part of the 2023 Dogen Seminar at Upaya Zen Center.

Henry has received dharma transmission (inka shomei and sanmotsu) from Yamada Ryoun Roshi, Abbot of Sanbo Zen, and is a Shōshike (Authentic Zen Master) of the Sanbo Zen lineage of Kamakura, Japan.

In this talk Henry explores Dogen’s work as transcending duality, emphasizing inner peace through Zen practice which is a continuous engagement with the present moment, free from attachment to outcomes or conceptual frameworks.
