"Keep Your Mouth Shut and Look Directly at Impermanence"

Thanks Zachary Price: I'm now reading the first book of Zen I've read in a long time, by Katagiri Roshi, erstwhile denizen of the San Francisco Zen Center. It's totally fresh. And he's down with the idea that time is not a succession of now-points.

The profundity on time has to do with his Soto training, within the powerful lineage of Dogen. Dogen's being-time is to be explored soon.

  1. Katagiri is lovely, isn't he? His dharma heir Steve Hagen is my teacher here in Minneapolis. Very direct.
