In this series, the teachers of Chosei Zen will bring to life through their own experience the important texts in our lineage. This month, Gordon Greene Roshi will focus on Sun Tzu’s Art of War, as described in a seminar by Tanouye Roshi, which is available in the Chosei Zen store.

Tanouye Roshi was fascinated by Sun Tzuʻs Art of War, using it frequently when speaking with people in business. As I have been editing a transcript of a seminar that Tanouye Roshi presented on Sun Tzu, I have been fascinated by the impression that he is speaking directly with Sun Tzu, describing the many misinterpretations that have arisen as the text has been translated into English. In this talk, weʻll discuss a few of those misinterpretations, giving you a fresh way to consider the text.

These talks will occur on the 2nd Sunday of even-numbered months at 1-2:30 pm CT (8-9:30 pm CET). You can register here and use the same link to join this and future Fresh Talks.
