  • Every Day Is a Fine Day” Calligraphy by Roshi Keido Fukushima from the World Wisdom Online Library: Www
    “Every Day is a Fine Day” Calligraphy by Roshi Keido Fukushima From the World Wisdom online library: www. worldwisdom.com/public/library/default.aspx Every Day is a Fine Day It was a nasty day. It had been raining all day. I had been waiting to play golf all week, and now all plans for golf had to be can­ celled. I was in a bad mood. All I could think of was, “Why did it have to rain today?” Suddenly Gensho walked into the living room, all drenched with rain, and with a big smile shouted, “Every day is a fine day.” I remember that I said nothing to his exuberant comment. On the contrary—I was irritated, think­ ing, “How can it be a fine day when it’s raining cats and dogs and I can’t play golf.” This incident occurred in 1974 at Claremont. Ever since that day, on numerous occasions, I have heard Roshi Keido Fukushima use this phrase—“Every Day is a Fine Day”—in his talks on Zen. Now that I understand the Zen import of this phrase, I have often greeted my students in my classes on a cold, wintry day in Ohio with the remark, “Every day is a fine day.” It presents an opportunity for a good discussion. As for me, I can cancel a tee-time for a golf game without get­ ting a headache. So, what does Zen have to do with the weather? The Roshi explains that it was Ummon (864 - 949 C.E.), a T’ang dynasty Zen master in China, who was fond of using this phrase.

We have been receiving a lot of rain this season, but last week there were three sunny days in a row when I was able to bike ride down to Seward Park and back each day. Our Zen garden is sublime this time of year, so well tended by many Chobo-Ji gardeners, most especially our Zen resident Sally Zenka Metcalf, who provides inspiration and instruction. Spring Sesshin was steady and strong, with 21 participants. Everyone did his or her part to facilitate deep inquiry into our true nature.

    Annual Report Annual Report Page 1 Center for East Asian Studies CenterUniversity for of Kansas East Asian Studies Annual Report University of Kansas 2004 Page 2 Center for East Asian Studies From the Director 2003-2004 was another exciting year at the Center for East Asian Studies. As detailed in this Annual Report, we welcomed a large group of new faculty and staff to KU, built on the successes of existing initiatives, and sponsored a range of new programs and events designed to bring East Asia closer to Kansas and the American heartland. With an over-achieving faculty, an exceptionally talented staff, and ever more students interested in East Asia, the Center has established a regional and national reputation for excellence in research, outreach and instruction. There’s also an intangible “buzz” about East Asia on campus and in the community, spurred perhaps by China’s economic ascent, the raging popularity of Japanese mass culture, and the rising population of Korean Americans in the area. With audiences engaged and growing, a strong institutional base, and a heightened need in our society for understanding of the world beyond our borders, the future looks bright indeed for the CEAS. As a historian, however, it is my nature to think not just of the road ahead, but to reflect as well on where we’ve been. And in the spring of 2004, we at the Center for East Asian Studies had the opportunity to do just that. In conjunction with the Military Arts in East Asia outreach conference, which featured Cappy Hurst as the keynote speaker, Elaine Gerbert and I organized a small dinner and first-ever reunion of CEAS directors and acting directors.

  • Pacifica Gates of Mercy FINAL
    The Gates of Mercy: Portals of Transcendence According to Jung and Buddhism Polly Young-Eisendrath, Ph.D. Behold the gates of mercy In arbitrary space And none of us deserving The cruelty or the grace From “Come Healing” By Leonard Cohen In a 1958 dialogue between Carl G. Jung and Zen master Shinichi Hisamatsu, there was a surprising exchange: CGJ: If someone is caught in the ten thousand things, it is because that person is also caught in the collective unconscious. A person is liberated only when freed from both. One person may be driven more by the unconscious and another by things. One has to take the person to the point where he is free from the compulsion to either run after things or be driven by the unconscious. What is needed for both compulsions is basically the same: nirdvanda [freedom from the opposites]. SH: From what you have said about the collective unconscious, might I infer that one can be liberated from it? CGJ: Yes! (Young-Eisendrath and Muramoto 2002, 116) The Collective Unconscious CGJ from Collected Works, Vol. 8: [The collective unconscious] constitutes in its totality a sort of timeless and eternal world-image which counterbalances our conscious, momentary picture of the world. It means nothing less than another world, a mirror-world if you will. But unlike a mirror-image, the unconscious image possesses an energy peculiar to itself, independent of consciousness (p. 376) And… Never shall we put any face on the world other than our own, and we have to do this precisely in order to find ourselves (p.

  • “With My Zen Mind” from “The Laughing Buddha
    “With My Zen Mind” Calligraphy by Roshi Keido Fukushima From the World Wisdom online library: www.worldwisdom.com/public/library/default.aspx The article below appeared as a section in Part 3 of The Laughing Buddha of Tofukuji: The Life of Zen Master Keido Fukushima, by Ishwar C. Harris. © 2004 World Wisdom Inc. All Rights Reserved. For Personal Usage Only. www.worldwisdom.com With My Zen Mind For years I have noticed that whenever Roshi Fukushima writes me a letter, he always signs it with the statement, “With my Zen mind.” Every time I read that signature statement, it forces me to examine my own state of mind. I cannot help but focus on my “contaminated mind,” overloaded with ego, attachments, and distractions. Once during a family discussion, one of my daugh- ters remarked, “I like you more when you return from Tofukuji.” When I probed further, she explained that then I was more agreeable, less prone to losing my temper, and pleasant to be with. Her statement is a constant reminder for me to contin- ue to examine the state of my mind. No wonder the first line of the Dhammapada reads, “You are the result of what you have thought.” So what is the state of mind of Roshi Keido Fukushima? When I posed this question to the Zen master, I knew that we had a long discussion at hand. He began by suggesting that per- haps we could focus our conversation on the condition of his mind “before satori” and “after satori.” That seemed to be a good place to start the discussion which was to take us on a long jour- ney of exploration into his Zen life.
