Deepest Practice, Deepest Wisdom: Three Fascicles from Shobogenzo with Commentary

Insightful commentary on a beloved ancient philosopher of Zen by a beloved contemporary master of Zen.

Famously insightful and famously complex, Eihei Dogenâ€™s writings have been studied and puzzled over for hundreds of years. In Deepest Practice, Deepest Wisdom, Kosho Uchiyama, beloved twentieth-century Zen teacher addresses himself head-on to unpacking Dogenâ€™s wisdom from three fascicles (or chapters) of his monumental Shobogenzo for a modern audience.

The fascicles presented here from Shobogenzo, or Treasury of the True Dharma Eye include â€œShoaku Makusaâ€ or â€œRefraining from Evil,â€ â€œMaka Hannya Haramitsuâ€ or â€œPracticing Deepest Wisdom,â€ and â€œUjiâ€ or â€œLiving Time.â€ Tom Wright and Shohaku Okumura lovingly translate Dogenâ€™s penetrating words and Uchiyamaâ€™s thoughtful commentary on each piece. At turns poetic and funny, always insightful, this is Zen wisdom for the ages.
