    108 Dharma Gates of Illumination Reprise

    Good Morning Dear Sangha;

    Once again for the fourth year, starting on Dec 21st (tomorrow ) I will be reviewing the 108 Dharma Gates of Illumination as listed in appendix to vol 4 of the Nishijima/Cross translation of the Shobogenzo. This will take from now until Vesak (April 8th) which is the Birthday of Buddha as celebrated in Eastern Asia.
    You are all invited to follow along with my blog and comment as you are willing and able.

    I look forward to hearing your insights.

    thank you and gassho in Nine Bows

        For those who don't have volume four of Nishijima/Cross (although I think it is available online?) I found a source for the 108 gates as a pdf download:

                  Let me mention that Shokai has and is going through some serious health challenges this year. His Wisdom shines though that, and in his writings. I would not miss this.

                    You have posted the Shasta Abbey version. Here is the Nishijima/Cross. Not sure what else may be out there.
