When Dogen was in China, he heard this verse that we are all still chanting as we are about to put the Kesa on.
Vast is the robe of liberation
formless robe, field of happiness.
I wear the Tathagatha’s teaching
Liberating all sentient beings.
Dai sai ge dap pu ku,
Mu so fu ku den e
Hi bu nyo rai kyo
Ko do sho shu jo
(remember: recording ends soon after the beginning bells;
a sitting time of 20 to 35 minutes is recommended)
