Question
Can we practice Zen when we are poor? I do not dare go to a dojo because I am afraid I will not have enough money. I know they have to pay for their space. Is that a problem?

Answer from Master Kosen
Generally, Zen practice is very inexpensive. If you are poor, this can be a good incentive to find the small amount of money you need to pay your share. You should not become complacent about poverty.
