Currently we are discussing the renowned
Mountains and Rivers Sutra
from
Dogen's classic explication of Zen Buddhist
practice,
Shobogenzo
(sometimes translated as
Treasury of the True Dharma Eye).
NOTE: We are using Carl Bielefelds' translation of
the
Mountains and Rivers Sutura,
done for Standford University's Soto Zen Text Project.
Copies will be available at the discussion group. But you
can also find the text and notes from Carl Bielefelds'
translation at
http://www.stanford.edu/group/scbs/sztp3/translations/shobogenzo/translations/sansuikyo/sansuikyo.html
and
http://www.stanford.edu/group/scbs/sztp3/translations/shobogenzo/translations/sansuikyo/sansuikyo.notes.html.
Discussion begins at 8 pm. Tea is served at 9:30 pm.
For those wishing to meditate before the discussion, there
is a 30 minute zazen session at 7:30 pm in the zendo.
