"My favorite memory of Kyoto: I went to a Zazen meditation at a little-known temple in Kyoto. It was only me, the abbot, and one other monk. We sat in meditation together for 1.5 hours in utter silence while rain lightly pattered on the roof. I began to understand what 'Zen' really means that night." (Ryan Combes, Ancient + Modern Japan Program Spring 2023)⁠
