Boundless Way Zen practice has touched my life in more profound ways than anything else and continues to do so.
Boundless Way Zen (BoWZ) practice which has its roots in the Japanese Soto tradition, Soto reform Harada-Yatsutani Koan curriculum and in the Korean Linji-tradition.
David Dae An Rynick, Roshi, and Melissa Moyzen Blacker, Roshi, are my primary teachers. I met David and Melissa i Bordeaux i 2016. David and Melissa are a rare and wonderful coming together of great compassion and love and strong and clear heart minds.
