Visions of Awakening Space and Time: Dogen and the Lotus Sutra
Leighton, Taigen Dan (Adjunct Professor, Institute of Buddhist Studies, Adjunct Professor, Institute of Buddhist Studies, Graduate Theological Union)
As a religion concerned with eternal salvation, Zen is based on and grew out of a Buddhist worldview very different from the currently prevalent scientific materialism. Leighton explicates this worldview through the writings of the Zen master Eihei Dogen (1200-1253), considered the founder of the Japanese Soto Zen tradition, which is now spreading in many places in the West. Broader awareness of Dogen's worldview and its implications, says Leighton, is helpful for amodern understanding of Zen and Mahayana praxis, and is relevant to contemporary environmental and ethical concerns.
