Kindness or not

Master Kosen – Published on October 28 – self-and-others

Question

What do you think of this attitude: a longtime zazen practitioner knows that his friend, also a longtime practitioner, behaved aggressively and without justification toward someone else in the dojo, verbally, yet chooses to stand by him out of friendship? Both are bodhisattvas...

Master Kosen’s answer

That is not the kind of problem that interests me.
