	Nyogen Senzaki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Noyogen Senzaki (1876-May 7, 1958) was a Rinzai Zen monk who was one of the 20th century's leading proponents of Zen Buddhism in the United States.
		Nyogen was becoming disconcerted with the institutional practices of the monastery at the time, and turned to books as a means of release.
		Nyogen stayed in the USA for the rest of his life, with the exception of a trip in 1955 back to Japan to visit his friend Soen Nakagawa.

	Nyogen Senzaki - Bio
		Nyogen Senzaki was born on the Kamchatka Peninsula in northeastern Siberia.
		In 1905, when Nyogen Senzaki came to live in America and learned English, he not only translated his own poetry but also the poetry of Zen masters like Jakushitsu and his own teacher Soyen Shaku.
		When we carefully observe the life of Nyogen Senzaki, his style of teaching and his personality, we cannot help but be impressed with how different he was from both the ancient masters and the modern teachers of Zen.

		Their commentaries read like a dialogue between the three, with each reflecting on his predecessors words, often seeming quite severe, and very amusing.
		However, it is Senzaki’s commentary which will be most informative to the Western reader, as he strives to put each koan in context, filling in the cultural backdrop that is unlikely to be present for the layperson.
		Toward the end a small section is dedicated to the memory of Nyogen Senzaki, with notes from his students and himself.

		But Lewis was a seeker in more than one Eastern tradition, and as early as 1920 met M.T.Kirby, a Zen-cum-Pure Land Buddhist, and through him, Nyogen Senzaki.
		Lewis was initiated by Inayat Khan during this 1923 visit - and he also arranged a meeting between Inayat Khan and Senzaki (during which both of them went into samadhi, according to Lewis).
		This was probably the first time a Zen and a Sufi master had ever made contact, and it occurred in a Western country at the instigation of a Westerner (who used a Hindu term to describe what happened).
