Hardcore Zen

Sometimes Pain is Good

Some say it is, some say it isn't.

Is Zen a Form of Buddhism?

Meditation and Pain

The Precepts say we shouldn't criticize other Buddhists. Why does Dogen do it all the time? Why do I?

Don't Criticize Buddhists!

...or is it different for some people?

Does Everyone Experience Karma the Same Way?

Shohaku Okumura has an interesting explanation of Dogen's essay on pain.

Sometimes Pain is Bad

Dogen said that the self arrays itself and looks at itself. What does that mean?

Self and Time

What more can I say? A lot apparently!

Life is Just Life, Death is Just Death

A tribute to my friend and one of the great Zen writers.
