Hey, Robert ... you've been in the peacemaker program for just over a month now. How's it going?
we do have scholarships, contact genki@zenpeacemakers.com
Sounds good. But the lack of money seems to almost always prohibit me from participating in such things. Who can afford this? For the well-to-do I hope you enjoy.

Thanks Ari. Tell me about your internship? I'm really curious about that.
I graduated from the first cohort along with Seiho. Now, I'm at a retreat in Montague, with Bernie, Genki, Seiho and Robert. So nice to meet the new cohort. I also had a very valuable experience and I'm getting a lot out of my internship. Feel free…
Congratulations! I did speak with Roshi Paul Genki Kahn a few times. My family and I decided to wait it out, get some social work experience here in Nebraska, see what is needed and then maybe next year begin a distant learning program.
I look forwa…
Hi Derek
I did get accepted into the program and I head for Maezumi Institute in October. It's inspired me to finish writing my novel before I go ... gotta get that off my list of things to do before I can ride into the sunrise (East( on my bhodisat…
Still preparing for the precepts in August. It looks like Zen House Seminary will have to wait. I hope to stay connected to the new students to hear how it is going. Any engaged Buddhist zen house seminarians want to give an update on your experienc…
See you Seiho! I've been preparing by basically going into a miniretreat staying with my family in michigan, and its been very beneficial! Also Kuya, I bet you'll be accepted, its a positive attitude such as yours thats very much needed in for the g…
Thanks for you encouragement, Seiho. Each day my committment to follow through on this adventure deepens. In Roshi Enkyo's dharma talk for week two of the big sit, she asks, "What is hidden in your life?"
At first I looked for some dark aspect of my…
Robert, see you in June!
It is wonderful to read that Kuya and Derek are looking into taking the plunge and attending the Zen Houses Seminary. I was in the first cohort and found the whole experience to be very rewarding and worthwhile . My husband understood my decision to…
So Robert, I gather you are in the June cohort. I applied for the October session since I've got so many workshops scheduled in August (one in July) and I just had the back hoe tear up my back yard ... (I'm afraid I didn't try to save the worms.) I'…
I know the excitement, a month from today I'll be at the Institute... I'm still a little in shock. I have noticed however that this will be an excellent practice of "letting go" and the experience of losing the comfort of the familiar for nine month…
Hey, my partner and I just talked and she says "Go for it." Looks like I'll be applying for the October residency. Four months away from home .... my teeth are chattering. Who am I without my garden?
Not yet. I will do so today. Thank You!
