Thank you. A very interesting little talk introducing Dogen. I am very much looking forward to this book. The small portion he reads sounds great.

Future book club selection? Hmmm. I will be back on that after I read it.

Hi,

I will read his book as I have all the previous ones. Thus far I have found them entertaining but somewhat repetitive with lots of "cool" stuff from his personal life which endears him to a younger crowd. What he says attracts people to Zen but I would hope that his students quickly develop a deeper understanding of Zen and move on to a more capable teacher. His contribution to Zen is very important as a promoter of Zen.

Just my opinion.

Review by Dosho Port. Actually more encouraged to get it after this than when hearing the talk.

I have to say, although I am only through the first two chapters ... Bendowa and Fukanzazengi ... I am pretty impressed and tickled by the whole thing.

Of course, it is not a line by line rewriting ... more of a quick thumb nail glimpse with a good bit of humor and pretty free interpretation.

But just wonderful so far.

I'm a couple of chapters in as well and so far I am finding it very useful.
