- Dōgen Zenji (1200 - 1253) was a Japanese Buddhist priest, writer, poet, philosopher, and founder of the Sōtō school of Zen in Japan.
Originally ordained as a monk in the Tendai School in Kyoto, he was ultimately dissatisfied with its teaching and traveled to China to seek out what he believed to be a more authentic Buddhism. Upon his return to Japan, he began promoting the practice of zazen (sitting meditation) through literary works. He eventually left Kyoto for the mountainous countryside where he founded the monastery Eihei-ji, which remains the head temple of the Sōtō school today.

Hello Samaneri, I like the sound of your name, its sounds like a seminary. Thank you for all the audio you have offered, an amazing effort on your part. Your voice; tone, rhythm, elocution and cadence come together beautifully. As well as the choice of background music. I found the image for this recording, Zen Circle by John Rossi, reminded me of the work of Hilma of Klint, quite something here:

Once again - a heartfelt thank you.
So beautiful only silence can do it justice. Thank you Samaneri from my heart to yours. Namaste❤🙏
Such relief to hear a simple message I can understand again
Sometimes it can be too intellectual for this elderly woman.
Thank you, words I live by.
Indeed Marg. Liberation is not an intellectual exercise. It totally transcends ALL concepts. Simplicity comes closer to it.
Beautiful, thank you❤️🙏
Thank you for reading these beautiful teachings to us.
I prefer to be defeated amongst the wise rather than be revered amongst fools.
I would be amongst those in the know or otherwise be alone.
This one is such a treasure for slowing down.
Thank you Yayasara

Very nicely done, eloquent music and peacefully timed speaking. Way to bring this ancient text to life Samaneri. ❤️ your channel so much!
🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏This is painfully exquisite my friend, especially after having watched the beautiful movie about Master Dogen's life. Your compassionate voice brings this priceless gift to life. My deep gratitude for your kindness and efforts always.

Beauty, huh.

I can't tell if this is too fast for me or if I need to practice more and listen to more teachings
Thank you for this. You've inspired me to perhaps record sections (or all) of my own books and the Tanahashi translation. I found that the other one I have listened to is 'Actualising the Fundamental Point' which you translate (with Myers) as Truth Unfolding. What is this one? I have Kazuaki Tanahashi's translation and I would like to read as well as listen to this. In any event, thank you so much for what you do. Namaha. Deep bows.
Dear Sister, thank you for this jewel 😊 Can you please share the title of the book you're reading from? 🙏
Hi Monika, these are a compilation of key Dogen pointers/teachings so they are not from just one book, but rather various teachings of the Master. I collected and gathered them up to make this reading.
Hello again :) To be more precise, I'm searching for the book/chapter/essay this quote is taken from: "it is like a hammer striking emptiness. before and after its exquisite peal permeates everywhere". I found that quote in French years ago. It's a very important image to me. In your compilation I finally discovered how it sounds in English. Thank you for your help 🙏
@@monikakocot2135 It is from the text Shobogenzo - second part - Jijuyu-Zanmai. You can find 10 different translations here: terebess.hu/english/Jijuyu-Zanmai-10-Translations.pdf
@@SamaneriJayasara Thank you so much! So many versions! Feels like heaven 🥰 Thank you for your work!🙏❤
