  • Reflections on Zen and Ethics Jan Van Bragt Introduction Quite a Few
    Reflections on Zen and Ethics1 Jan Van Bragt Introduction Quite a few years ago already, the fast-growing Zen world in the United States was shocked by the news of scandals discovered in some U.S. Zen halls, sexual and financial abuses committed by Zen Masters. I have forgotten all the details already, but the facts confronted us all with an intriguing question, namely: How is it possible that Zen Masters (Rôshis) – people who are supposed to be enlightened – commit such unethical, immoral acts? From the Zen world two. rather contradictory, answers were soon heard. One, (the answer explicitly voiced by Abe Masao): “A Zen Master who commits such acts proves thereby that he is not enlightened.” The presupposition here seems to be that transcendental wisdom is intrinsically linked to morality and directs the subject to spontaneously lead a highly ethical life. – The problem here is only that doubt is thrown at the system of attestation of the enlightenment of the disciple by the master (inka). The second answer is rather the opposite of the first: “Enlightenment has nothing to do with ethics,” and further: “Zen has nothing to do with ethics.” I must confess that I never heard this answer explicitly formulated, in all its definiteness, by any of my Zen friends. The nearest thing I ever heard directly was a statement made, at the 1991 meeting of the Japan Society for Buddhist-Christian Studies, by Nishimura Eshin, presently president of Hanazono University at Kyoto: “Zen has nothing to do with social engagement.” For the sake of possible later

Several recent developments suggest that other organisations are now starting to take up the challenge of preserving our digital heritage. Microsoft announced in July that it was joining forces with the UK’s National Archives (NA) to assist in the preservation of millions of digital records. Many of these records are stored in obsolete file formats and can only be read with software that is no longer available. Microsoft has provided the NA with software that emulates earlier operating systems and applications, allowing access to files in outdated formats. “The ephemeral nature of digital information, resulting from the rapid evolution of technology, is a major challenge An aerial image of the main deck showing the extent of the fire.

The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern Indian subcontinent some time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[2] He is recognized by adherents as an awakened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end suffering (or dukkha), achieve nirvana, and escape what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Two major branches of Buddhism are recognized: Theravada ("The School of the Elders") and Mahayana ("The Great Vehicle"). Theravada—the oldest surviving branch—has a widespread following in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and Mahayana is found throughout East Asia and includes the traditions of Pure Land, Zen, Nichiren Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, Shingon, Tendai and Shinnyo-en. In some classifications Vajrayana, a subcategory of Mahayana, is recognized as a third branch.

Zen War Stories is a sequel to Victoria’s Zen at War (1997), which ex- plored the relationship between institutional Buddhism (especially Zen) and Japanese militarism before and during World War II. The first book discom- fited many Western students of Zen by showing how almost all Japanese Zen masters and institutions had been fervent supporters of colonialism and the Pacific War. This book supplements the earlier one. There are actually not many battlefield tales, as Victoria acknowledges in the preface, but the additional historical material he has dug up is almost as important and uncomfortable for Western Buddhists. Chapter One summarizes an interview with Nakajima Genj¯o(1915-2000), who had retired as head of the Hakuin branch of Rinzai Zen. After an early kensh¯o or enlightenment experience, he voluntarily enlisted in the Imperial Navy at age 21 and served for ten years.
