Shobogenzo.pdfThe Shobogenzo — Zen Master Eihei Dogen2824 viewsA new translation of a Zen classic... The Shobogenzo is the recognized spiritual masterpiece by the thirteenth century Japanese Soto Zen Master Eihei Dogen. It is comprised of discourses that he gave to his disciples, in person or in writing, at various times between 1231 and his death twenty-two years later at age fifty-three. These discourses cover a wide range of topics pertinent to those in monastic life though often also relevant to those training in lay life. He discusses matters of daily behavior and religious ceremonial as well as issues involving the Master-disciple relationship. He also explores the deeper meaning that informs the so-called Zen koan stories, which often puzzle readers by their seeming illogicality and contrary nature.

Nagarjuna-upaya.pdfNÄgÄrjuna and the Philosophy of UpÄya 2011 viewsThe purpose of this article is to offer a different account of NÄgÄrjuna than is found in contemporary Western scholarship. It will not ask what it means for causality, truth, the self, or consciousness to be "empty" in a very general sense, but rather how NÄgÄrjuna’s philosophy relates to the soteriological practices of Buddhism and what it means for those practices to be "empty" of inherent nature. Rather than describing NÄgÄrjuna as a metaphysician this study will situate him squarely within the early MahÄyÄna tradition and the philosophical problem of practice that is expressed through the doctrine of “skill-in-means†(upÄya-kauÅ›alya). It should become evident in what follows that the doctrine of upÄya has little in common with Western metaphysics. It is unconcerned with problems regarding causality, personal identity, consciousness, logic, language, or any other issues that are unrelated to specific problems surrounding the nature and efficacy of Buddhist practice. Given that every major tradition in Buddhism stresses the indispensable nature of practice, it is highly unlikely that Nagarjuna’s philosophy is concerned with metaphysical issues or that his doctrine of “emptiness†can be separated from the soteriological practices of Buddhism.
