SFZC Intensive: Intimate Discussions: On Dogen’s Zuimonki
March 2 – 20, 2021
SFZC Online on Zoom
Led by Zoketsu Norman Fischer and Sokaku Kathie Fischer
About the 2021 March Intensive
The writing of Dogen (1200 – 1253 CE), the founder of the Soto School in Japan, can be dizzingly complex, especially in his masterwork Shobogenzo/Treasure of the True Dharma Eye. However, Dogen was also an everyday Zen teacher to the many monastics who came to practice with him. Zuimonki is a record of Dogen’s informal oral instructions to monks as recorded by his first disciple Ejo. In this text we meet a softer and more down-to-earth Dogen, who offers practical advice and compassionate discussion. In this Intensive we’ll select readings from this text (available as a free online PDF*) for study and discussion, and we’ll keep and share personal practice journals of what we discover.

Registration is due Thursday, February 25.
