About Roshi Genki

One of the living Zen masters of our time, Roshi Genki augments traditional Zen practices with modern psychology, philosophy, science, and socially engaged service to marginalized and disadvantaged communities. He has developed a thorough and profound holistic approach to Zen practice that offers personal and inter-relational development for skillful living in the world with love, service and joy. Roshi Genki describes this approach to spirituality as The Practice of Presence and Reclaiming the World. Roshi Genki emphasizes that the Zen training hall is our daily life, our way of being in the world with ourselves, our intimate circle, our work and our communities.

Genki began dedicated yoga and meditation practice in the 1960s. In 1970 he entered residential Zen training with Aitken Roshi in Hawaii and practiced with Koun Yamada Roshi. He transferred to the Zen Center of Los Angeles in 1972 to become a monk and priest under Taizan Maezumi Roshi, served as his personal attendant, and was the Director of Training there and Director of Center Publications.

Roshi Genki lived and trained with the legendary coterie of early students under Maezumi Roshi that included Zen Master Bernie Glassman, Roshi Dennis Genpo Merzel, Roshi John Daido Loori, Roshi Charlotte Joko Beck, the writer, Roshi Peter Muryo Matthiessen, the Jesuit, Roshi Robert Jinsen Kennedy, the Buddhist scholars, Peter Kakuzen Gregory and Francis Dojun Cook, Roshi Gerry Shishin Wick, and Roshi Jan Chozen Soule.

Roshi Monika Genmitsu Kahn

Co-founder of THE ZEN GARLAND ORDER
Co-founder of Ancient Oaks Zen Community in Savannah, GA
Spiritual Director of Red Path Zen

Breath by breath, step by step, carrying the life pack we carry with caring attention and perseverance. Intimately surrendering with a softening heart until all things become one movement and the mountain walks you. The innately natural manifests.

There is the passion of ascent, the exaltation of the greater perspective, the necessity to descend and join life in valley and plain. The mountain makes the valley and the valley creates the mountain.

Roshi Shoko Sings Alone Duncan

Founder and Honorary Director of Red Path Zen

GRANDMOTHER EARTH  IS SACRED AND SO ARE YOU. Let’s start at the very beginning.   An underlying concept is that the Grandmother is Sacred. Since She is sacred every part of Her is sacred including the trees, water, animals, fish, and human beings.  We are of Her and share in Her sacredness. We are One with all that..”

About Roshi Sings-Alone
Like so many other First Americans, the Wounded Knee occupation of 1973 called Sings-Alone back to his roots, and he became deeply involved in Native American spiritual practices. Spirits led him to a Lakota/Monacan medicine man with whom he studied intensively for seven years sometimes participating in or pouring six sweat lodges a week. In the lineage of Chief Fools Crow, Dawson No-Horse, and George Whitewolf, the Sacred Pipe and the Inipi (Sweatlodge) was his spiritual home for thirty-three years. For many years he and his wife, Priscilla Cogan, led a large inter-tribal ceremonial community in southern Maryland. Sings-Alone was also a professional storyteller of Native American stories.

Many years ago, Sings-Alone was asked by Roshi Genki to provide a Native American spirituality workshop to the young Zen seminarians in Western Massachusetts. This led to continuing Zen contacts. He began to see Zen as providing a spiritual context to his spirituality, and he ultimately took shelter. Later, he was fully ordained to the priesthood and became a Roshi, He is now dedicating his life to teaching Zen through the filter of Native American Spirituality. Roshi Sings-Alone is the spiritual director of the Red Path Zen Sangha in Upton, MA. He offers scheduled telephone or internet dokusan and is planning workshops through the internet and personal contacts. His workshops brim with humor, story, and direct experience of the Sacred.

Roshi Duncan Shoko Sings-Alone is an enrolled Cherokee (Georgia Tribe of Eastern Cherokee), a storyteller, healer, spiritual teacher, and ordained Zen Buddhist Priest and Roshi within the Zen Garland Order: An International Community and Order For Zen Practice, Education, Healing, and Service. His books, Sprinting Backwards to God, and Stalking Nirvana contain many lessons told in story form, and trace his journey through Native ceremonials to Zen Buddhism. He is married to Priscilla Cogan who shares his commitment to the Red Road. She holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and is a published novelist and playwright.

Roshi Paul Kisho Stern

Co-founder and Spiritual Director of Dharma River Zen Community

“Everything we do matters. Even the smallest of activities play a significant and cumulative role in shaping our individual lives and further all of these activities weave into the tapestry of this fantastic and wondrous world we move in and through. This manifests in a dance that weaves the fabric of living and being woven as part of that same tapestry.”

About Roshi Kisho

Kisho approaches practice from the perspective of embodiment and movement through the dimensions that come to form the context of life…with a flow like that of the dharma river.  He encountered this dynamic first perhaps when he began working with movement and combat arts as a wrestler when he was five years of age.  This gave him a foundational skill set on which to being his journey with martial arts in 1989. He has studied martial arts consistently from that time forward with an emphasis on Choy li Fut, Baji Quan, and Hung Gar Kung fu as well as  Chen Style Taiji Quan. He has studied extensively in the United States, Taiwan, Canada, and Europe. He has taught martial arts since 2000. He continues to cultivate and grow his personal practice of martial arts under the instruction of Masters Lee Chang Ren and Lee Chang Chih in Taiwan as well as Tai Sifu Neil McRitchie and Sifu Eric Muchowski in North America.

Over the years, it has become increasingly clear to him that martial arts and qi gong training offer a context that is very much more than training the body to move in specific ways, or even more than integrating body, mind, and breath.  It offers a manner to access in a more integrated, holistic manner our individual and shared human experience as it unfolds in the moments of life. Embodiment practice as zazen further provides the practitioner with access to understanding more intimately the interwoven dimensions of their physical, emotional, and psychological makeup.  From this understanding, martial arts affords the individual the opportunity to expand the choices they access as they move through the embrace with intimacy and connection their life beyond the dojo or zendo.

Kisho began his interest and study of meditation in the early 1990s. This journey brought him to study with a variety of teachers both in North America and abroad.  He deepened his practice and study through during his years in Taiwan, where he studied at Bu Dong Shi in Pingdong Province of southern Taiwan.

Upon returning to Minneapolis, Kisho studied Zen Meditation and Buddhist studies at Dharma Field Meditation and Learning Center in Minneapolis under Steve Hagen and Tibetan Buddhism with the Bodhicitta Sangha under Khenpo Sherab Sangpo.

Time and growth lead him to encounter Zen Garland, where he found a complete system of practice and study that complemented his life experience and practice.  He is Roshi in the Zen Garland Tradition and a senior student of Roshi Paul Genki Kahn and Roshi Monika Genmitu Kahn of  Arizona.  He continues his study and growth in embracing human development and Zen practice and acts as a teacher within this tradition.

Currently, Kisho lives with his family in Winona where he is an Associate Director at Winona State University, a co-founder and director/instructor at Manitou Center, and a co-founder and spiritual director of Zen Garland Dharma River Zen Community and President of the Zen Garland Board.

Sensei Trish Baishin Johnson

Co-founder of Dharma River Zen Community

“What I have come to learn on a deeply personal level throughout my life, is that relationships are the foundation of living an intimately present and engaged life; the relationship with myself, with others whom I know and don’t know, with nature and with the dynamic unfolding mystery around me. This relationship, of meeting ourselves and others with compassion and an open mind and heart, begins the process of healing ourselves and the world.”

About Sensei Baishin

Sensei Baishin began practicing meditation during a tai chi class that she took in college.  This introduction to exploring her internal life, in a way in which she never had, made a deep and lifelong impact on her.  Over the next several years, Kojindo begin to experience how meditation was able to support healing ailments of her mind, body and heart.  It was through her own personal engagement with sitting still, investigating her heart-mind and learning to pay attention to her breath that she was able to crack open the door to more fully examine who she was as a young woman.  

She spent the next decade traveling, living, working and volunteering throughout Europe, Africa and Asia.  She continued to read about and explore meditation through books and various teachers she met along the way.  While living in Asia, she spent time in Dharamshala, India and was exposed to many of the Tibetan Buddhist practices.  In the late 1990s, she began practicing Vipassana meditation and attending retreats in Asia and the USA.  It was around this time, in Rishikesh, India that she also began studying and practicing yoga.

After years of travel, individual practice and a lot of self-exploration, Baishin was longing to settle down a bit and find a teacher to study more directly and closely with.   In the early part of 2000, she began her first formal Zen studies with Steve Hagen (Roshi Stephen Tokan Hagen) at the Dharma Field Meditation and Learning Center in Minneapolis, MN, and took the Precept Vows in 2002.  In 2003, Kojindo married her longtime partner Roshi Paul Kisho Stern.  They had their first child in 2005. Kojindo did her best to continue a formal yoga and meditation practice, but motherhood was etching out a new path, revealing itself as a powerful and important Zen Teacher.  A few year later, Baishin, Kisho and their son moved to Winona, MN in search of a slower pace of life and easier access to nature and wild spaces.  Over the next several years, with a second child (a beautiful daughter) in the mix, Baishin found herself immersed in raising children, growing vegetables and taking care of goats and chickens.  Life was both beautiful and difficult, vibrant and missing something all at the same time.

Realizing (and listening to) the longing of reconnecting with more regular sitting practice, in 2012, she and Kisho opened a small Zen meditation space and shortly thereafter they met Roshi Paul Genki Kahn and Roshi Monika Genmitsu Kahn.  Kojindo was immediately drawn to the dynamic and richness of practice with Zen Garland; the diverse entry points (core practices) to engaging with Zen and to living an intimate and meaningful life! She became a formal student of Roshi Genmitsu, eventually becoming a Dharma holder and Zen Priest in the Zen Garland order.  She is devoted to the process of showing up for a life that is continually unveiling and revealing itself (all of it!) with an intimate and compassionate presence.

Baishin is committed to the service of others in her roles as a mother, partner, family member, friend, educator and community member.  She and Kisho are co-founders of both Zen Garland Dharma River and Manitou Center in Winona, MN.  She teaches mindfulness in the schools, provides workshops and trainings to children, families and adults that inspire self-compassion and awareness. Most recently she and Kisho co-created, along with 2 colleagues, a resiliency training for first responders.  Baishin is a trained Zen Focusing instructor, a trauma-informed yoga teacher, a hospice volunteer, and a social activist.  She is grateful to all of her teachers along the way, named and unnamed, obvious and subtle.  She wishes to express deep gratitude to her beloved Zen teachers, the Zen Garland Sangha, local and across the globe, her parents, siblings, friends and especially to her partner Kisho and their 2 children, who continuously love and support her.

Roshi Wolfgang Okami Schmachtenberg

Founder and Spiritual Director of EIDO-JI – Eternal Way Temple in Germany

 

“The practice of most is like “fog over the waves”. But you will not “find” your truth and you cannot “search” for what is already there. Stop fighting and look closely. Your truth is right in front of you. Just learn TO BE ONLY and you will be permanently flooded with gentle flow of deepest happiness.

Reverend John Mitsudo Mancuso

Dharma Holder and Founder of DOKAN-Sangha

Instead of living in a circle that is safe, predictable and organized around ourselves, let us together become that circle whose center is everywhere and whose timeless circumference is nowhere.

About Rev. Mitsudo

The roots of Mitsudo’s spiritual path go back to childhood prayer experiences he had in the woods near his home and in his parish church. Despite his family not being practicing Catholics, by the time he was nine years old, he had decided to be a priest.

After completing the first phase of seminary training in New York, he was chosen to study theology in Rome and, after ordination, remained there to complete a degree in Scripture. A turning point in his spiritual path occurred when he spent the summer before ordination working in India with Mother Teresa’s congregation. From this time on, he began reading about Zen and other Eastern contemplative traditions. For the next nine years of parish work and teaching in New York, his contemplative practices were supported by yearly two-week monastic retreats each year. During this period, a large number of parishioners began seeking him out for spiritual direction and counseling. This led him to earn a masters degree in Pastoral Counseling. More importantly, however, was his awareness that his own spiritual and emotional development and fulfillment were inextricably tied to supporting other people’s growth as a spiritual director and counselor rather than as a Scripture scholar.

In 1983, Mitsudo left the priesthood and subsequently married his wife Donna, earned a Masters in Social Work and completed postgraduate psychoanalytic training. He began a private psychotherapy practice while also working as a clinician, instructor, clinical director and executive director in NYC social service agencies. During this time, he sought to nurtured and develops his spiritual growth through his study and daily yoga and meditation practices. This did not remotely meet his needs. In May of 2012, it became clear he needed a community and a teacher.

Synchronistically, the Zen Garland Order had opened its center blocks away from his home. He began sitting two or three mornings a week before work and began Dokusan with Genki Roshi and then with Genmitsu Roshi. He describes his path in Zen as the bumpy and winding “scenic route” were he very slowly explored each of the core practices offered. This was no small task. He did this with a certain amount of caution to ensure that this leg of his spiritual life, unlike his previous religious training, was based in direct experience rather than an assent to an article of faith. He needed to establish an entirely new relationship to the way he studied and worked with a teacher. He also needed to overcome his conviction that Focusing and embodiment practices would not offer anything more to what he was already doing. Slowly, these and other core practices began, singly and collectively, to open him to what he had been seeking since his childhood: a direct intimacy with his own life and Life Itself. Paradoxically, it was his engagement with the once dismissed embodiment practice under Kisho Roshi that catalyzed this awareness and the power of the core practices.

He now sees the path before him in terms of continually deepening, for himself and others, the embodiment of his Dharma name, Mitsudo (the intimate way). Mitsudo is a Zen Priest and Dharma Holder in the Zen Garland Order and founder of the Infinite Circle Zen Community. He lives in Fishkill, NY with his wife Donna.

Reverend Yves Keichi Calderone

Dharma Holder and Assistant Teacher with Zen Garland Order

About Rev. Keichi

Keichi has been connected with Zen Garland for over ten years. He came to us as an Aikido student with Dharma Successor, Roshi Eran Junryu Vardi. He first studied with Roshi Genki and passed his first koan with him. With his blessing he then continued his studies under Junryu Roshi. He has attended most of Genki’s Senior Classes. In addition, early on, he attended Ann Weiser Cornell’s Introduction to Inner Relational Focusing and took Zen Garland’s Zen Focusing courses. He has advanced in his koan study, took novice ordination, was empowered in Denkai Full Priest Ordination, served as Shuso for an Ango and was empowered as Hoshi, an Assistant Zen Teacher.

He has worked for international companies over the past 20 years, most recently as an executive with Mast Global (L Brands) leading a global innovation team. His work has taken him around the world where he has had opportunities to engage with various cultures and to experience and help address some important humanitarian issues of our time including poverty, income inequality, education, and human trafficking.

Through these experiences, Keichi has been a voice for corporate social responsibility. In 2008, he joined the Board of Directors of Mast Cares, a nonprofit social service charity dedicated to improving the “health, welfare and education of women and children” in the international communities where L Brands is doing business. Since its inception, they have raised and distributed approximately $4.4 million to international charitable initiatives. In our conversations, Keichi has expressed a passion about these issues and, with his background in business and his dedication to serving others, is working to make a significant and meaningful contribution in advancing the goals of social justice.

Keichi’s educational background was formed by the Jesuits where the ethical principle was expressed as “being a person for others.” This is so consonant with Zen Buddhist practice in which “a person’s enlightenment can be measured by how they treat others.”  Recently, in alignment with ZGO values, Keichi decided to change his career vector and entered social work school at Columbia University. These lifelong values have prepared Keichi well to be a social worker and serve in social policy legislation and service opportunities.

Reverend Joanne Kyouji Cacciatore

Founder and Director of the MISS Foundation and the Selah Carefarm

To fully inhabit grief is to hold the contradictions of the great mystery that loss shatters us and we become whole. Grief empties us and we are filled with emotion. Fear paralyzes us and we lend courage to another. We mourn our beloveds’ absence and we invoke their presence. We cease to exist as we once were and we become more fully human. We know the darkest of all nights and in so doing can bring the light of our loved ones into the world.

 

About Rev. Joanne Kyouji Cacciatore

Rev. Joanne Kyouji Cacciatore, Ph.D. is a priest in The Zen Garland Order, on their Board of Directors and a member of their Teachers’ Circle. She is a student of Roshi Paul Genki Kahn, and a beloved friend and teacher to him. Here she is in her ownwords:

About me, Rev. Joanne Kyouji Cacciatore, Ph.D.
I am a reasonably happy, contemplative person with plenty of quirks who cries every day at both the beauty and the pain in the world. My daily mindfulness practice is what helps me work in a very challenging field and benefits “I, Thou, and We.”

Since 1996, I have worked with and counseled those affected by traumatic death, particularly the death of a baby or child at any age and from any cause. I use non-traditional, mindfulness-based approaches such as trauma focused psychoeducation, fully present narration, emotion-focused imaginal dialogue, equine assisted trauma work, bibliotherapy, ecotherapy, meditation, yoga, and shinrin-yoku. I spend much of my time as a professor & researcher at Arizona State University and the founder of the MISS Foundation, an international nonprofit organization with 75 chapters around the world aiding parents whose children have died or are dying. I began the Kindness Project in 1997 as a way to help many grieving parents honor their beloved children who have died (please, join us in the Kindness Project).

My research has been published in peer reviewed journals such as The Lancet, Death Studies, Omega Journal of Death and Dying, Midwifery, British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Social Work Education, Journal of Mental Health Counseling, Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, International Journal of Nursing, Birth, Social Work, and Families in Society. I received my doctorate from the University of Nebraska- Lincoln. My latest book, Bearing the Unbearable: Love, Loss, and the Heartbreaking Path of Grief, won the Indies Book of the Year Award in self-help for 2017 and made it into Oprah’s Basket of Favorite Things! The book sold out its first printing before it was even released.

I am also a medical consultant having trained at grand rounds and various hospitals and teaching universities around the world on the power of compassion. I was humbled to receive the prestigious Hon Kachina Award, the Sr Teresa Compassionate Care Award, the Empathic Therapist of the Year Award, Arizona Foothills Arizona Women Who Move the Valley Award, and the Parents of Murdered Children Father Ken Czillinger Award. I am a Diplomate of the American Academy of Psychotherapy and an advocate of mental health to care for those suffering traumatic grief. In addition, I spearhead the graduate Certificate of Trauma and Bereavement at ASU with a usual cohort of 12- 15 students.

On a personal note, I am an ascetic and radical vegan who hasn’t eaten meat since 1972, who has maintained a crush on Carl Sagan and Peter Frampton. I hike barefoot up mountain trails regularly. I surf when I can get to an ocean, and I love rock climbing. I don’t kill anything, even bugs. I am a voracious reader. I love pomegranates and require copious amounts of sunshine. I rescue too many animals for the amount of space in which I live. I love cloud watching, star gazing, and my toes in the sand.

I have endured many anachronistic deaths during the course of my early life. I lost both my parents. My best friend and teacher died in 2004 and I have lost partners and many friends.

But July of 1994 changed the course of my life: the day my baby daughter died. Since then, I have committed my life to the service of others suffering traumatic deaths, as it was in the darkness when I truly found my self.

I am the human mama of 44 rescued animals at Selah Carefarm and mother to five children, now mostly grown, “four who walk and one who soars.”
