About this book

A Study of Dōgen: His Philosophy and Religion by Abe, Masao. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780791408384.

This complete translation of Masao Abes essays on Dogen probes the core of the Zen masters philosophy and religion. This work analyzes Dogens formative doubt concerning the notion of original awakening as the basis for his unique approach to nonduality in the doctrines of the oneness of practice and attainment, the unity of beings and Buddha-nature, the simultaneity of time and eternity, and the identity of life and death. Abe also offers insightful, critical comparisons of Dogen and various Buddhist and Western thinkers, especially Shinran and Heidegger.
