Katagiri Roshi

‘Dogen Zenji says bukkojo… advance. If you find something wrong with the direction, you should return to your own place. This is to stand upright in the middle of Buddha. At that time you can get a taste of peacefulness which is the perfection of full function, right in the middle of Buddha’s world. Through this tranquillity your body and mind are completely free from obstacles. Then you can be considerate, compassionate to all sentient beings. Also you can understand what you are.’ (from Wind Bell)
