The 108 luminous Dharma Gates

The Dharma Gates are teachings coming from nature and from sutras. They lead - if they are put into practice - to the awakening and a happy life, in accordance with this awakening.

The main Gate is zazen, the Zen meditation. But Buddha gave many more teachings which also lead to the awakening. An old sutra (which Master Dogen added to his Shobogenzo) contains 108 “Gates”, because they are the key of an unlimited enjoyment, as the Bodhisattva who presented them said.

You will find in this volume the first 46 Gates, translated and commented by Master Roland Yuno Rech. The following Gates will be broached in a volume to be published in 2019.
