These magical photographs of ordinary land- and waterscapes all share a mysterious quality of presence that calls into question any distinction we might make between ourselves and the natural
world. They thus represent the renowned nature photographer–Zen master’s teaching on the interconnectedness of all things. The sixty-one astonishingly beautiful color images are accompanied by
John Daido Loori’s commentary on a text by the most famous of all historic Zen masters, Eihei Dogen (1200–1253). The photographs and commentary go together to make up a striking teaching on the
wisdom of the world around us.
