I've spoken to Jundo Cohen online and he seems a nice, caring and very spiritual man - I can say without a doubt he's also one of the coolest and at the same time a very Zen master style exasperating man in the sense that he tries to get you to work things out for yourself. I've read Dogen and some of the Pali Nikayas, I see no conflict between what Shakyamuni Buddha and Dogen teach, but then again maybe I have some slight appreciation of Zen and as Abhaya says I (kind of) get it.

I can relate to what Reverend Jundo is saying above - its just the way Zen teachers talk out of both sides of their no sided mouths.
