The headmistress of Nisou-do, Ms.Aoyama Shundo, is a very famous nun. 
Her book Zen Seeds is available in English translation.

The material covered in the lectures is from Dogen’s Shobogenzo (“Treasury of the True Dharma Eye”),
the most important philosophical work within the Soto-school of Zen.

reported by Genevra



Ms. Aoyama Shundo is a very famous person among the Buddhists and intellects.
I happenly watched an educational talk program produced by NHK (national TV channel) in which she was talking about the way of life in August, 2006.
