GoNorth Japan | Talking with a Zen Monk - Part 2, about life, money, and dealing with crisis. @GoNorthJapan | Uploaded November 2020 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
This is the second in a series of conversations with Bunsei-san, a Soto-shu (Zen) Buddhist monk. His temple is called Jurenji (鷲連寺) and is in Hachimantai, Iwate. If you're in the area, you can visit his temple. He also is open to teaching mindfulness and Zen meditation classes by appointment.

You can find the temple located here: goo.gl/maps/7CQCqJ2zcQmwzYiE7
