Shinji Shōbōgenzō


The Shinji Shōbōgenzō or True Dharma Eye 300 Cases (Shōbōgenzō Sambyakusoku), or Treasury of the True Dharma Eye (Mana Shōbōgenzō), compiled by Eihei Dōgen in 1223-1227, was first published in Japanese in 1766. The literary sources of the Shinji Shōbōgenzō are believed to have been the Keitoku Dentōroku and the Shūmon Tōyōshū. It is considered significant that "this koan collection -- in Dogen's hand -- demonstrated that the Soto tradition had 'lost' the meaning (wisdom) of Dogen's work". It is written in Chinese, the language of the original texts from which the koans were taken.
