In Zen practice, a Mondo is a dialogue between a disciple and his master.

Nichiren.

hi, i recently started practicing the buddhism of nichiren daishonin and i have many doubts, one is why there are so many diovisions in buddhism, and the other, is what do you think about the buddhism of god, and where we come from, because i was told that you don't believe in god, but there is a line of buddhism that do, and i'd like to know ...


Discuss together.

Dear Stephan,I’ve read the various confrontations between Roland and you, and it makes me really happy that you can discuss together, as you had answered it to me. You are very different, but I do not cease being persuaded that you received the same marrow, and that you both try to retransmit it as well as possible, each one his way. I do not ...

This dialogue inter-godos.

This dialogue inter-godos, inter-disciples by consequence, it is for good. Remark: your view on the dojo of Paris is a little limited, it is not at all monolithic in this dojo and it is normal, you do not come here, one day perhaps... things change. There are several energies in this place, between Katia Robel and Philipe Coupey, they are not ...

Harada's sesshin.

How is it possible that you are the only one to have refused to take part in the sesshin of Harada and that all the other disciples of Master Deshimaru were there knowing that he criticized and envy their Master?

Close disciple of Kodo Sawaki.

Kojun Kishigami Roshi, close disciple of Kodo Sawaki, in conference today in Paris, said that Deshimaru had grafted a simple branch in a tree while bringing Zen to France, but he hadn't sown seeds being able to spread his transmission, to develop deep roots (I was a little surprised since there were disciples of Deshimaru in the front row)... he...

I like to speak with different people of different sanghas...

Hello, Thank you for your answer to my question about spiritual pride. I have just read your answer on the legitimacy of your line compared to the one of the Sotoshu. I only took part in one sesshin with you. That day, I realized that Roland was the one who I wanted to continue this particular relation with, woven starting from ordination. ...


What happened in the AZI for you to leave?

Without a criticizing spirit but just concerned to understand the history in which I fit, What happened in the AZI for you to leave? I imagine that the reasons were serious especially after the reading of a site of Luc Boussard who gave me a little chill down my spine when one does not have oneself the prespective to judge. It is what pushes me ...

Osho?

I've read a book from osho that speaks about zen, but in those books he never explains who taught zen to him, and being something you learn from practising, he should have a Master, shouldn't he?What do you think about osho and his books? is he a fake?
...

Tibetan master and zazen practice?

I have met buddhism when I was very young through tibetan and zen traditions. I could never tell these two traditions apart in my practice. So, I took refuge in a tibetan master ( I follow teachings of this traditions) but I also practice zazen. Recently, I have met Roland Yuno Rech who told me that if I want to make progress on the Way, I will ...
