with John Daido Loori Roshi
Traditionally referring to a higher kind of knowledge or power available to advanced spiritual adepts, jinzu included the ability to read minds, walk over water, and a number of other "supernatural" practices. In his Shobogenzo: Jinzu, Dogen stands this concept on its head, pointing out that spiritual powers are nothing other than "chopping wood and carrying water." When we clearly understand mystical power, we understand that it has never been apart from our own lives. 9 CDs.
