http://zenshin-edz.blogspot.com/2014/02/japanese-pilgrimage-no-matter-where-you.html
Zen wanderings and wonderings. Sunday, February 23, 2014. Japanese Pilgrimage: "No matter where you go, you can’t lose yourself.". Rinso-in from the garden. Every morning we sat in the old zendo. Old zendo and abbots chair, Photo by Kwee Downie. Maybe it's like that. Here is Hoitsu Suzuki's lovely talk, given May 19, 2013. What you can't see is his humor, sweetness, and tremendous gift for mimicry. You'll just have to imagine his impersonation of the big frogs. Kate McCandless and Oka-san's ikebana.

http://zenshin-edz.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Zen wanderings and wonderings. Saturday, August 3, 2013. Japanese Pilgrimage: The City of the Dead. In order to attain serenity of mind and become a person who is like the clouds in the sky and the whirling snow, consider that everyone's fate is to be become a corpse. Kobo Daishi (Kukai) translated by Nobuhiro Tamura. It is night-time, and we are walking through an immense and ancient graveyard. All around us, the huge, straight trunks of 600-year-old cryptomeria,. We walk a gentle uphill slope through t...

Zen wanderings and wonderings. Friday, April 12, 2013. Zen Priest Goes to Seminary. A Buddha in New Mexico. The spiral above the main doorway to Starr King School for the Ministry. Photo by Jim Lewis. Over the last year my life has made a dramatic – and for some people, somewhat mysterious – turn. I am, for the first time in twenty-five years, back in school, in the Master of Divinity program at a Unitarian Universalist seminary in Berkeley, California: Starr King School for the Ministry. Channing was co...

Slipping Glimpser: October 2012
http://zenshin-edz.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Zen wanderings and wonderings. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Shuso Notes: Cookies, mothers, bodhisattvas, codependents. Once again, these are my musings on what is arising for me right now, as shuso (head student) of the practice period. Here's a koan for you: What is the difference between a bodhisattva and a codependent? Thanks, Bruce Fortin. For this. A great koan from a therapist/Zen teacher! After all, mother's bake cookies, right? A little of all three? It has been a tremendous education. Mostly, ...

Zen wanderings and wonderings. Tuesday, July 17, 2012. More on the Art of Riding the Waves. Since my last post about waves, I've continued to think about the big waves of life, and how to meet them. I was asked to give the guest sermon at the Eastshore Unitarian Church. In Bellevue last Sunday, and my sermon was on "The Art of Riding the Waves." If you'd like to listen to it, you can download and listen to it here. Almost everyone has experienced these moments, or knows someone who has, when everything c...

Slipping Glimpser: Southeast Alaska - First Glimpse
http://zenshin-edz.blogspot.com/2010/09/southeast-alaska-first-glimpse.html
Zen wanderings and wonderings. Thursday, September 2, 2010. Southeast Alaska - First Glimpse. I'm back from three and a half weeks of work in Southeast Alaska, where I hunted rare plants as part of a team of botanists on the Tongass National Forest. The Ruff-It General Store, accessible only by boat. Whale Pass, Prince of Wales Island. That's me, in XtraTuf boots and rain-gear, walking through a saltmarsh. Photo by Emily Drew.

Zen wanderings and wonderings. Thursday, July 18, 2013. Japanese Pilgrimage: Entering Asia. I am alone in the garden of a tiny nunnery called Gio-ji. In the village of Arashiyama on the outskirts of Kyoto, and before me, in the late afternoon light, is a luminously green space, floored by moss, roofed by Japanese maples, the golden light streaming across it. Mountain Rain in the onsen (hot springs) town of Yamanaka, wearing the cute little yukata one puts on after the bath. So in the spirit of "praise si...
