    Making Monjyu Bosatsu.

    Hi

    Me and my teacher make Monjyu Bosatsu.




    We make this by branch and paper(段ボール)

    I think Zazen is kind of out of our common sense(常識).

    How do you think?

    That's lovely Kakunen! Yes to common sense, but sometimes we have to be very very still and listen closely to find our common sense. Zazen helps us get there.

    The Sacred Monk Manjushri (Monju) Bodhisattva.

    The "Sacred Monk" refers to the statue that sits in the Sodo (Monks Hall) or Zendo on the Altar. Here is ours. Riding on his lion.
