Book of equanimity

Re: Book of equanimity

Hello Dojin
Thank you for the link to the zensite. This will be good to read, however Jundo said on another thread that they want us to get the 'Wick' commentary so that we all have the same version: (Jundo's quote below)

There are other translations available, by Thomas Cleary and others. However, even if you have one of those already, I ask you to find the edition by Rev. Wick, as the life-filled commentaries by him will be at the heart of our reflections.

End quote.

is it any good?
can i use it?...

Though I am not an official student of Taigu's, I would like to join in the reading with the Sangha just for the sake of joining, and I can't easily afford much right now. So, if this is a useable version, I would like to know as well.

Can't seem to get enough, can we?

Hi,

Yes, we will be working with Rev. Shishin Wicks priceless commentaries. So, I do ask folks to find his book.

Re: Book of equanimity

Talk about having too many books...I went to buy this on my Nook, only to find out that I already owned it and didn't even know it!

I want to participate in this reading, and I'll try very hard not to be one of Taigu's annoying ghosts, this time.

I also have a Dogen/Loori book, the Dharma Eye, which has at the end a cross-reference showing where the koans are tied to which chapter in Shobogenzo. Is it cheating if I try to share this? Or does that go against Taigu's mandate that we dig or ourselves to find the gold? (trying to stay out of trouble, at least in the beginning).

Nor is it a puzzle to crack, or weird gestures in the air, mysterious words and actions or MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOing like an old cow (though one certainly can MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO if one's heart needs to) ...

:shock:

Jeez, I feel like a peeping tom who just sat in the bushes and watched something I wasn't supposed to. Feels really weird to watch somebody's dokusan--assuming that's what it was. I'm not sure what the heck was going on!

I'm also not comfortable with having fun poked at other people's dokusan or whatever form of practice, if it was meant in that way. I've sat in the dokusan line or the zendo and heard all kinds of weird things going on. It's none of our business, though. For the person involved, it's a serious matter.
