Description
In this episode (which is rather long) we look at one of the pivotal chapters from the Shōbōgenzō, which is chapter 11, 'Uji'. This is variously translating as 'existence-time', 'being-time', and so on. It is one of the key concepts in Dōgen's vision of Dharma practice and might be described as a kind of Zen phenomenology. Dōgen evokes the subjective reality of human existence, especially in relation to time and how we stand in relation to ignorance and awakening. At times elusive, at times illuminating, this chapter repays sustained attention.
