QUESTION (resumed) :

"The 8 satori of the Great man."

QUESTION (original) :

I've read the comments of Master Dogen on 'the 8 satori of the Great man'. I can establish a correspondence with the eightfold path, except for 'CHISOKU', the SATISFACTION OF WHAT IS. Which relationship is there with the right action?
Should it be understood that ONE has simply the fruit of the last actions?
Is CHISOKU the recognition of the karma and its suspension by the practice of the precepts?

Gassho.

ANSWER :

The eight satoris of the great man of Dogen is a different thing from the eightfold ways, even if we can always find things in common. It is not by mixing everything that the best cuisine is made.

KOSEN!
