Wisdom of Dōgen Zenji: A Practical Guide to the Radical Zen Teachings of Just Sitting and Everyday A

Are You Ready to Go Beyond Mindfulness and Awaken to Your Life?

In an age of endless distraction, we yearn for a genuine connection to ourselves and the world. We practice mindfulness to find moments of peace, yet a deeper question remains: how do we live a truly awakened life, not just in fleeting moments, but in every breath we take?

Enter Dōgen Zenji, the 13th-century founder of Sōtō Zen. Dōgen offers not a technique to be applied, but a new reality to be embodied. He challenges us to stop merely observing our lives from the riverbank and instead dive into the stream itself. This is a path of total engagement, of radical presence, where the sacred is found not in a distant heaven, but in the most mundane corners of our daily existence.

The Wisdom of Dōgen Zenji is your essential guide to this profound and transformative path. This book moves beyond academic theory to offer a living, breathing encounter with a master.

Inside, you will discover:

• The Path of Shikantaza: Learn the art of "just sitting," a practice that is not a means to an end, but the direct expression of enlightenment itself.

• The Oneness of Practice and Realization: Uncover Dōgen's revolutionary teaching that your practice, right now, is the complete activity of a Buddha.

• The Wisdom of Being-Time: Transform your relationship with past, present, and future, and find freedom from anxiety and regret.

• The Sacred in the Everyday: Learn how preparing a meal or washing your face can become the highest spiritual practice.

Blending deep philosophical inquiry with practical meditations, guided reflections, and contemplative exercises, this book is more than a study-it is a manual for transformation. If you are ready to drop the illusion of the separate self and be "actualized by the myriad things," this is your invitation. Begin the journey from a life of seeking to a life of seeing.
