Is the posture dogmatic?

Master Kosen – Published on March 17 – posture

Question

Hello,

For unknown reasons, you did not answer my last email. But
I will ask the question more properly: aren’t the absolute insistence on
practicing in a dojo, having a master, the correct
posture (not on a chair, but precise in every detail), ordination as a
monk, etc., already a form of dogmatism? And
attachment?

Thank you.

Answer from Master Kosen

Is stating that 20 kilograms weighs more than 10 kilograms a kind of dogmatism?
