“Although this inconceivable dharma is abundant in each person, it is not actualized without practice, and it is not experienced without realization. When you release it, it fills your hand–how could it be limited to one or many? When you speak it, it fills your mouth–it is not bounded by length or width.”
–Dogen, “On the Endeavor of the Way (Bendowa)”
A practice community in the Soto Zen tradition.
