In this episode, we jump forward to Chapter 29 of Shōbōgenzō, 'Inmo' or 'the ineffable'. Among other themes, we consider the topic of the 'sincere mind' (sekishin). We also reflect on Dōgen's suggestions about how to deal with anxiety in relation to whether or not we are truly leading a Dharma life  and the paradox that even this very doubt itself expresses a connection with the  transcendent. We also return to reflect on some of the affinities between Dōgen's apparent vision of self-power and Shinran's  Other Power approach.

Note: at one point of the recording I refer to Dōgen's approach as 'Other Power'. This was a verbal error and I intended to say 'self-power.'
