Description - Treasury Of The True Dharma Eye by Kazuaki Tanahashi

The complete English translation of one of the greatest of the Zen classics, now in a single volume.

The complete English translation of one of the great Zen classics and works of Japanese literature, by the founder of the Soto school-now in a single volume

Treasury of the True Dharma Eye (Shobo Genzo, in Japanese) is a monumental work, considered to be one of the profoundest expressions of Zen wisdom ever put on paper, and also the most outstanding literary and philosophical work of Japan. It is a collection of essays by Eihei Dogen (1200-1253), founder of Zen's Soto school.

Kazuaki Tanahashi and a team of translators that represent a Who's Who of American Zen have produced a translation of the great work that combines accuracy with a deep understanding of Dogen's voice and literary gifts. This edition includes a wealth of materials to aid understanding, including maps, lineage charts, a bibliography, and an exhaustive glossary of names and terms-and, as a bonus, the most renowned of all Dogen's essays, "Recommending Zazen to All People."
