Description
A Dharma of the Soto and Rinzai schools of Japanese Buddhism and a founder of the Zen Center of Los Angeles, Maezumi Roshi installed an American from Brooklyn, Bernie Tetsugen Glassman, as Abbott of the Zen Center of New York in 1982. Following a long tradition of a student becoming the successor of his teacher, it was the first formal succession of that lineage from East to West. Maezumi Roshi then asked Glassman and his own student/successor Peter Muryo Matthiessen—the environmental activist and three-time National Book Award winner—to travel back to Japan to meet their dharma ancestors. This book, with black and white photos on nearly every two-page spread, is the chronicle of that journey, and takes its text from Matthiessen's poetic Nine-Headed Dragon River.
