QUESTION (original) :
Which is the relation of Master Kosen with the AZI? What to make of the AZI? I seek a place to practise zazen. Can you help me?
ANSWER :
The AZI, I think, is good for the social image of Master Deshimaru and of Zen, they do their job. I for my part disagree with the fact that - lik the Shumu-sho (Soto-shu) in Japan- they mix their policy with the teaching of Zen such as Sensei transmitted to us. Despite everything, I accept the fact today that, contrary to the Soto-shu, all the people in charge for the AZI like to practise zazen.
KOSEN!
