[ 'oōjē ]   noun / verb

13th-century Japanese word (宇治) for 'time-being' or 'being-time' : all being is time, and all time is being.

"People only see time's coming and going, and do not thoroughly understand that the time-being abides in each moment. This being so, when can they penetrate the barrier? Even if people recognized the time-being in each moment, who could give expression to this recognition?"

– Eihei Dogen (1240)
