    dharma transmission from Nishijima roshi

    I recently discovered, that Brad Warner got transmission from Gudo Wafu Nishijima, just like Jundo. Though I googled for it, I seem not be able to find out who else got transmission from him, does anybody know ?

    Interesting to re-find this thread during our 15th anniversary celebration and a lovely reminder of what a big and, as AlanLa said, diverse family we are.

    I looked this up after a discussion with another of Nishijima's heirs on Facebook, and not mentioned here thus far, Rachelle Allen-Sherwood, who is an artist in the UK: https://www.rachelleallen-sherwood.com/ My ex-wife met her at a Theravada talk in Canterbury and she said she studied with Roshi as a contemporary of Brad and Peter Rocca.

    Interesting that the thread and most of the posts all happened on the anniversary of his birth.

    And of course I start reading from the top of the thread and start thinking "wow, I haven't seen some of them in a while!". hahahah

    Thank you for raizing this one Kokuu; it's neat seeing older threads pop back up.

    Myoku is still around, although quiet. (Hi Myoku ) Jinyu is now Ordained in a Chinese lineage.

    One fellow, dear heart, has left this visible world: Let's take a moment to recall our good friend Alan, who was an important part of this place for years. I miss his gruff voice around here.

    Thank you for introducing Rachelle. Wonderful.

    Gasho, Jundo
