So Buddha gave conferences and spread the teaching and this became doshu. His great satori, his original solitude, his aesthetic solitude became genjo, became doshu. This is expressed in his conferences. We sing it every morning when we sing Bussho Kapila. (Chants:) Bussho Kapila, Jodo Makada, Seppo Harana, Nyumetsu Kuchira.... Buddha's life was very simple: He was born in Kapila, he got satori at Magada, he taught in Harana, and he died in Kuchira. This is all. C'est tout. His life was entirely dokan.

Dokan means: repetition, repetition in daily life. To repeat zazen, ceremony, samu, zazen, ceremony, samu. And so it becomes a habit. The body becomes spontaneous. And so you have wisdom. There is no need for the frontal brain.
