Question
Your use of French makes me wonder, particularly because of the repeated profanity. Isn’t French rich enough to say what one wishes without those words? In some articles, you use the word “zanshin.” Doesn’t that notion also apply to the use of language, as it does to calligraphy…?
P.S. I do not practice “zazen,” but thank you for some enlightening reading.

Answer from Master Kosen
Yes, you are right: language and words are very important and powerful. However, we can use some profanity to wake people up and avoid always remaining politically correct.
