Eight weeks of study will bring Eihei Dogen’s seminal fascicle Genjokoan closer to our own situation. Written in 1233, probably as a letter to a lay practitioner, it deals with the practicality of living in this world.

Shohaku Okumura says that gen means “to appear”, “to show up”, “to be in the present moment”, while jo means “to become”, “to complete”, or “to accomplish”. The combined word genjō therefore means "to manifest," "to actualize," or "to appear and become”.

I decided to use Shohaku Okumura’s book: REALIZING GENJOKOAN. The Key to Dogen’s Shobogenzo as guiding text.
