did Dogen say......

Post by confusedsoso »

Did Dogen say there was no such thing as nirvana but only that nirvana lies with zazen. I think I read this somewhere on the internet. Is this true??

Reason: Maybe it was only a coincidence, but I had a strange phenomenon after using the link as well. Link precautionally removed.

Link is clear for me, though the page does incorporate doubleclick and googlesyndication javascript which would be good to disable via something like noscript.

I don't understand anything of that, but the link works fine on my computer. Here is a link to the main page of A-Z Quotes https://www.azquotes.com/ then you just put in "Dogen"
