Zen Enlightenment Origins and Meaning by Heinrich Dumoulin
Zen Enlightenment Origins and Meaning by Heinrich Dumoulin


 
The author describes the development of Zen and enlightenment from its origins in India through its development in China to its fruition in Japan. Delineating the Buddhist origins, as well as the Taoist and yogic influences, he traces the historical path Zen has followed, with special emphasis given to the development of koan practice and the writings of the great Japanese Zen master Dogen (1200 - 1253). He then brings the experience to life by presenting, in his own words, the enlightenment experiences of a number of contemporary practitioners of Zen.
