Genko Rainwater
Genko leads a five-class series on Kyogen Carlson’s book Zen in the American Grain. Kyogen was abbot and teacher at Dharma Rain Zen Center for decades until his death in 2014. The book is a collection of essays designed to make Buddhist teachings accessible to American students. We will read parts of the book and discuss the teachings found in it, using small-group discussions and other collaborative study methods. Books are available for sale from Genko at $10 each (cash or check only, payable to Genko Rainwater).
