Sewing
Posted on Sep 21, 2011 | 6 comments
The kesa is the Buddha’s robe. The robe of Zazen. In Japanese, it is called Nyoho-e, the robe of as it-is-ness. Thanks to the work and life of the Shingon teacher Kaiju Jiun Sonja (1718-1804) who loved being grasped by the still state, to the dedication of Mokishutsu Zenji and later, to Eko Hashimoto and Kodo Sawaki, we have now the opportunity to study, sew and wear the Buddhist robe.
Very Interesting presentation, but can I see it in English.
Thank you.

If you need the robe, you won’t get it. If you don’t need it, you’ll get it.
HOW DO WE GO ABOUT DOING THAT? WHAT IS INVOLVED?
