Dogen was the founder of the Soto zen school of buddhism that lived in Japan around 1200.
There are buddhist teachers who say you must practice to attain enlightenment: sitting meditation, koans, etc... From what I gather Dogen was more of a 'you are already enlightened just realize that' kinda guy.
