Soen Nakagawa Roshi

.
In the course of working on the Remembering Nakagawa Soen Roshi  book (now on the Internet), these pictures surfaced and I thought I would save them here. Soen was the teacher of my teacher, Kyudo Nakagawa Roshi (no relation) and both men acted (at different times) as abbot at Ryutaku Monastery in Japan. Here, Soen is in America. The color pictures are from his going-away party in 1982 in New York City. He never returned to the United States.
