TREELEAF ZENDO PODCAST

October 2015 Zazenkai Dharma Talk (Wild Ways of the Precepts in Japan)


Listen Later

Reading: "Wild Ways of the Precepts in Japan"

It is not known if the precepts in sixteen articles resulted from

Dogen’s own innovation or if he borrowed this group from another source.
[Dogen, in a writing describing the ordination ceremony for his
priests] states that the ordination ceremony described therein is
exactly the same as the one conducted by [Dogen's Teacher in China]
Ju-ching in 1225 when he administered the precepts to Dogen. The
reliability of that assertion, however, seems doubtful. [from "Dogen and the Precepts" by Prof. Steven Heine]
