A2: Dharma

On the Wild Fox Zen blog, Dosho Port writes about his recent weekend at the Ann Arbor Buddhist Temple: “I had a lovely time hanging out with Haju (a delightfully tender and pithy iron woman of the dharma) and joining in with the practice of the seminary students. The role of the teacher at the Ann Arbor center combines the Soto roles of head monk and work leader and teacher. In other words, Haju’s energy is clearly the driving force behind all that happens. At the same time, Haju is skilled at delegating - for example, asking the students what needed to be done on Sunday morning rather than assigning jobs.” [Source]
