Dogen's Genjo Koan Quotes

“Value the person you are right now, and the moments they are creating. Even if you become a Buddha in the future, you of the present will never be seen. It is just one time, one direction. If we think about it, what seems to be just an ordinary person's petty realm today is indeed very precious.”
― Dōgen, Dogen's Genjo Koan: Three Commentaries
