About this product

Product Information

Thirteenth-century Zen Master Eihei Dogen has been unanimously acknowledged by Japanese and Western scholars alike as Japan's foremost philosopher. Now Francis Dojun Cook, a Dogen scholar for many years, has translated ten practice-oriented chapters of Master Dogen's masterwork, the Shobogenzo ("Treasury of the True Dharma Eye"), in which he discusses what is involved in the wholehearted, moment-to-moment practice of Zen, with numerous examples from the lives of past masters.

Reviews
Dr. Cook has succeeded in illuminating Dogen's work. [ How To Raise An Ox ] can assist you in deepening your understanding of Zen practice and is an excellent tool for the serious student of the Soto Zen form., The author's purpose is to clarify what Dogen's 'Zen of practice' actually means. We can measure his success not only by the vividness of his introduction to Dogen's thought, but also by the surprise we find in discovering the breadth and diversity of 'practice' as Dogen meant it., How to Raise an Ox is an outstanding introduction to the most important Zen master in Japanese history. Francis Dojun Cook provides a brilliant translation of ten carefully selected chapters from Dogen's masterpiece, Shobogenzo. These chapters are preceded by a series of short essays written by Cook, which distill the essence of what follows and provide an ideal introduction to it. These essays are masterpieces of lucidity and insight that help the reader to grasp the more subtle and elusive aspects of Dogen's profound and extraordinarily creative writing. Cook has a remarkable grasp of the heart of Dogen's thinking and a genius for communicating it.

Good packaging, arrived quickly. The only slight issue is that the image used implied the book was signed, but the listing itself never claimed it was signed. I wouldn't say it's completely deceptive, but it is pushing it a little. The price was great either way, so it's inconsequential for this specific listing.
