Morita Masatake ( 1874-1938 ), also read as Morita Shoma ( 1874-1938 ( 森田 正馬 ), was a contemporary of Sigmund Freud and the founder of Morita Therapy, a branch of clinical psychology strongly influenced by Zen Buddhism.

一行 ), was a member of the Zen school.

His diverse crew includes a corrupt computer genius ( Avon ), a smuggler ( Jenna ), a thief ( Vila ), a murderer ( Gan ), a telepathic guerrilla soldier ( Cally ), a computer with a mind of its own ( Zen ) and another wayward computer ( Orac ).

In 1217, two years after the death of contemporary Zen Buddhist Myōan Eisai, Dōgen went to study at Kennin-ji Temple ( 建仁寺 ), under Eisai's successor, Myōzen ( 明全 ).

Then, in 1225, he decided to visit a master named Rújìng ( 如淨 ; J. Nyōjo ), the thirteenth patriarch of the Cáodòng ( J. Sōtō ) lineage of Zen Buddhism, at Mount Tiāntóng ( 天童山 Tiāntóngshān ; J. Tendōzan ) in Níngbō.

The concept of oneness of practice-enlightenment is considered so fundamental to Dōgen's variety of Zen — and, consequently, to the Sōtō school as a whole — that it formed the basis for the work Shushō-gi ( 修證儀 ), which was compiled in 1890 by Takiya Takushū ( 滝谷卓洲 ) of Eihei-ji and Azegami Baisen ( 畔上楳仙 ) of Sōji-ji as an introductory and prescriptive abstract of Dōgen's massive work, the Shōbōgenzō (" Treasury of the Eye of the True Dharma ").

Dogen's notable successor was Keizan ( 瑩山 ; 1268 – 1325 ), founder of Sōji-ji Temple and author of the Record of the Transmission of Light ( 傳光錄 Denkōroku ), which traces the succession of Zen masters from Siddhārtha Gautama up to Keizan's own day.

Dirck Vorenkamp, a professor of religious studies, argued in his paper " B-Series Temporal Order in Dogen's Theory of Time " that the Zen Buddhist teacher Dōgen presented views on time that contained all the main elements of McTaggart's B-series view of time ( which denies any objective present ), although he noted that some of Dōgen reasoning also contained A-Series notions, which Vorenkamp argued may indicated some inconsistency in Dōgen's thinking.
