Do you have faith in your transmission's ability to save beings?

Question

Isn’t zazen too difficult for the average practitioner? It is too direct a method. Modern people’s karma is too heavy for them to let go of body and mind unless a master takes them in hand and shows them how, but who can afford that in terms of time and money?

Shouldn’t we return to concentrating on the breath and to dhyana, which is less demanding and perhaps more accessible?

Do you have faith in your transmission’s ability to save beings?
