This principle is expressed in the following simple formula that is repeated hundreds of times in the Buddhist discourses:. When this is, that is. From the arising of this comes the arising of that. When this isn't, that isn't. From the cessation of this comes the cessation of that. Rupert Gethin states ". With ignorance as This Being, there are volitional formations The glossary states: [web 3]. Contemporary translator Thanissaro Bikkhu provides the following translation: [web 4]. Rupert Gethin translates That Becomes: The Buddhas Teaching on Conditionality follows: [4]. There are many possible ways of interpreting this formula, but only one does justice both to the way the formula is worded and to the complex, fluid manner in which specific examples of causal relationships are described in the Canon. That way is to view the formula as the interplay of two causal principles, one linear and the other synchronic, that combine to form a non-linear pattern. The linear principle — taking 2 and 4 as a pair — connects events, rather than objects, over time; the synchronic principle — 1 and 3 — connects objects and events in the present moment. The two principles intersect, so that any given event is influenced by two sets of conditions: input acting from the past and input acting from the present.

When he was young, none of his relatives liked him. When he was twelve years old, he was or<Llined as a monk by Ekkei, Abbot of Myo-shin Monastery. Afterwards, he studied literature under Shungai of Kennin Monastery for three years, and gained nothing. Then he went to Mii-dera and studied Tendai philosophy under Tai-ho for. a summer, and gained nothing. After this, he went to Bizen and studied Zen under the old teacher Gisan for one year, and attained nothing. He then went to the East, to Kamakura, and studied under the Zen master Ko-sen in the Engaku Monastery for six years, and added nothing to the aforesaid nothingness. He was in charge of a little temple, Butsu-nichi, one of the temples in Engaku Cathedral, for one year and from there he went to Tokyo to attend Kei-o College for one year and a half, making himself the worst student there; and forgot the nothingness that he had gained. Then he created for himself new delusions, and came to Ceylon in the spring of 1887; and now, under the Ceylon monk, he is studying the Pali Language and Hinayana Buddhism.

  • Hakuin on Kensho: the Four Ways of Knowing/Edited with Commentary by Albert Low.—1St Ed
    ABOUT THE BOOK Kensho is the Zen experience of waking up to one’s own true nature—of understanding oneself to be not different from the Buddha-nature that pervades all existence. The Japanese Zen Master Hakuin (1689–1769) considered the experience to be essential. In his autobiography he says: “Anyone who would call himself a member of the Zen family must first achieve kensho- realization of the Buddha’s way. If a person who has not achieved kensho says he is a follower of Zen, he is an outrageous fraud. A swindler pure and simple.” Hakuin’s short text on kensho, “Four Ways of Knowing of an Awakened Person,” is a little-known Zen classic. The “four ways” he describes include the way of knowing of the Great Perfect Mirror, the way of knowing equality, the way of knowing by differentiation, and the way of the perfection of action. Rather than simply being methods for “checking” for enlightenment in oneself, these ways ultimately exemplify Zen practice. Albert Low has provided careful, line-by-line commentary for the text that illuminates its profound wisdom and makes it an inspiration for deeper spiritual practice. ALBERT LOW holds degrees in philosophy and psychology, and was for many years a management consultant, lecturing widely on organizational dynamics. He studied Zen under Roshi Philip Kapleau, author of The Three Pillars of Zen, receiving transmission as a teacher in 1986. He is currently director and guiding teacher of the Montreal Zen Centre. He is the author of several books, including Zen and Creative Management and The Iron Cow of Zen.

  • The Dōgen Zenji´S 'Gakudō Yōjin-Shū' from a Theravada Perspective
    The Dōgen Zenji´s ‘Gakudō Yōjin-shū’ from a Theravada Perspective Ricardo Sasaki Introduction Zen principles and concepts are often taken as mystical statements or poetical observations left for its adepts to use his/her “intuitions” and experience in order to understand them. Zen itself is presented as a teaching beyond scriptures, mysterious, transmitted from heart to heart, and impermeable to logic and reason. “A special transmission outside the teachings, that does not rely on words and letters,” is a well known statement attributed to its mythical founder, Bodhidharma. To know Zen one has to experience it directly, it is said. As Steven Heine and Dale S. Wright said, “The image of Zen as rejecting all forms of ordinary language is reinforced by a wide variety of legendary anecdotes about Zen masters who teach in bizarre nonlinguistic ways, such as silence, “shouting and hitting,” or other unusual behaviors. And when the masters do resort to language, they almost never use ordinary referential discourse. Instead they are thought to “point directly” to Zen awakening by paradoxical speech, nonsequiturs, or single words seemingly out of context. Moreover, a few Zen texts recount sacrilegious acts against the sacred canon itself, outrageous acts in which the Buddhist sutras are burned or ripped to shreds.” 1 Western people from a whole generation eager to free themselves from the religion of their families have searched for a spiritual path in which, they hoped, action could be done without having to be explained by logic. Many have founded in Zen a teaching where they could act and think freely as Zen was supposed to be beyond logic and do not be present in the texts - a path fundamentally based on experience, intuition, and immediate feeling.

  • Not Falling, Not Obscuring: Dogen and the Two Truths of the Fox Koan
    NOT FALLING, NOT OBSCURING: DOGEN AND THE TWO TRUTHS OF THE FOX KOAN ________________________________________________________________________ A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS ________________________________________________________________________ By Patrick H. Wyant January, 2013 Thesis Approvals: Shigenori Nagatomo, Thesis Advisor, Religion Marcus Bingenheimer, Religion ABSTRACT Within recent Japanese Buddhist scholarship there is a debate over the interpretation of Karmic causality evidenced in the 75 and 12 fascicle editions of Dōgen‟s Shōbōgenzō, one salient example being that found in the daishugyō and shinjin inga fascicles on the fox kōan from the mumonkon. At issue is whether a Buddhist of great cultivation transcends karmic causality, with the earlier daishugyō promoting a balanced perspective of both “not falling into” and “not obscuring” causality, while shinjin inga instead strongly favors the latter over the former. Traditionalists interpret the apparent reversal in shinjin inga as an introductory simplification to aid novices, while some Critical Buddhists see Dōgen as instead returning to the orthodox truth of universal causality. I argue that Dōgen philosophically favored the view found in daishugyō, but moved away from it in his later teachings due to misinterpretations made by both senior and novice monks alike. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT .......................................................................................................................

  • OF BUDDHISM Alia Jawad
    Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XIX - 2008 MAITREYA OF GANDHĀRA―AN ANTICIPATED SANGUINE OF BUDDHISM Alia Jawad The Maitreya Boddhissatva,‘the unconquered, the invincible is the one who is free of the three poisons of greed, anger and stupidity’ (Bell, 1998). Abstract Maitreya enjoys the unique distinction of the only Bodhisattva being recognized throughout the entire Buddhist World, including the Theravada sect. The prophecy of the arrival of Maitreya is found in the canonical literature of all Buddhist sects and is accepted in most Buddhists sects as an actual event that will take place in the distant future. The article presents a short summary of the concept of Maitreya as a ‘future savior of the world’. A short description of other boddhissatvas (recognised by the Theravada texts) is also presented in this paper. The paper presents an analytical review of how Maitreya cult has provided a ray of hope for a better future to the common masses. Moreover, throughout centuries, the same cult has initiated several schools/societies, that yearn for promulgation of a global moral and ethic decree. A bodhisattva is the symbol of compassion who seeks enlightenment while also trying to save all sentient beings by spreading the Buddha’s teachings. In early Buddhism the term boddhisattva (on the way to enlightenment) was used to identify Siddharta autama before he became a buddha (the enlightened one). Nonetheless, some other boddhissatvas were known as early as the early Buddhism, before its schism in several sects. The boddhissatvas in Hinayana were limited in their number and function. They began to gain greater importance for the Mahāsamghīkas1.
