H H Dorje Chang Buddha Iii Expounds The Great Dharma Of Zen Practice

"The Great Dharma of Zen Practice" is what H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III taught a group of cultivators in March of 2013 in the Hall of the Three Holy Ones at Bodhi Monastery in the United State. The Office of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III formally published this great dharma on the internet in the Announcement Number 40 on December 4, 2013. This great dharma enables everyone to understand what the standard, proper practice of zen actually is, and people will now be able to understand what the levels of those zen practice dharmas they encountered before this announcement actually are and whether such dharmas are correct. This is the complete content of "The Great Dharma of Zen Practice" expounded by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III in March of 2013, which is a transcription of a discourse on dharma given impromptu.

This Buddha Dharma scripture is a quintessential and wondrous discourse imparted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III when a rinpoche respectfully requested a discourse on the dharma relating to the question “What is cultivation?”. This is a very fundamental lesson in Buddhism; indeed, the first lesson. Nonetheless, this is an important matter that many cultivators, including those who have practiced cultivation over many years, do not understand and are confused about. It is difficult to incarnate as a human being. It is even more difficult to incarnate as a human being with the opportunity to encounter the true Buddha Dharma. The essence of learning Buddhism lies with carrying out what we learn in our cultivation. Therefore, we must first understand what cultivation is. Only after that is one able to leave the cycle of reincarnation, liberate from all suffering, become a holy being, and persevere until becoming a Buddha.

Through Zhaxi Zhuoma Rinposhe's personal story as a disciple of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, readers can learn of the true power of authentic Buddhism and of those practitioners who have reached marvelous levels of accomplishment.

These pithy and powerful readings provide a perfect introduction to the teachings of Zen master Dogen—and will inspire spiritual practice in people of all traditions Eihei Dogen (1200–1253), founder of the Soto School of Zen Buddhism, is one of the greatest religious, philosophical, and literary geniuses of Japan. His writings have been studied by Zen students for centuries, particularly his masterwork, Shobo Genzo or Treasury of the True Dharma Eye. This is the first book to offer the great master’s incisive wisdom in short selections taken from the whole range of his voluminous works.

Spiritual practice is not some kind of striving to produce enlightenment, but an expression of the enlightenment already inherent in all things: Such is the Zen teaching of Dogen Zenji (1200–1253) whose profound writings have been studied and revered for more than seven hundred years, influencing practitioners far beyond his native Japan and the Soto school he is credited with founding. In focusing on Dogen's most practical words of instruction and encouragement for Zen students, this new collection highlights the timelessness of his teaching and shows it to be as applicable to anyone today as it was in the great teacher's own time. Selections include Dogen's famous meditation instructions; his advice on the practice of zazen, or sitting meditation; guidelines for community life; and some of his most inspirational talks. Also included are a bibliography and an extensive glossary.
