When I read "Bouzu DAYS" of Toko Jun-san, I remember the program of "Zen world" of NHK special.

The program showed that any newcomer is going to be 100% rejected the introductory.

This is called "Niwazume" that newcomers should keep falling on their knees to ask the initiation.

When I was watching TV, I was cold blue.

The newcomers continue to be cursed for two days with every word.

"Do you really want to enter the main hall?"

"Go home. Annoying!"

At last, they are kicked out the gate, and they scrag with saying "get out!!

According to this book, the hard task called "Tanganzume" is to keep zazen for three days in a coalhole.

It is irrational.

If you think so, you lose the game. I am afraid that it is painful to watch a video.

-----

However, I have one question that I don't know the answer. Now I am thinking it.

A senior monk asked the newcomer,

"Why do you choose this Eiheizi-temple? You can train in other temple can't you?"

The newcomer answered,

"No, sir. It should be this temple", but I didn't see the continued video.

"What is the collect answer?"

I am worried about it.

I was thinking many things.

If he said, ""I think that Eiheiji-temple is somehow "brand"",

The senior monk kicked out from the gate absolutely.
