Support people
Dear Nishijima Roshi,
What is the best way for you to support people who are in death process? Zen practionners or not?
Warm regards
Nicolas Gounaropoulos
Master Gudo Nishijima has been practicing Buddhism for more than sixty years.
He was a student of Master Kodo Sawaki, an itinerant priest famous
for his efforts to restore Zazen to its rightful place at the center
of Buddhism. Master Nishijima was ordained as a priest by the
late Master Rempo Niwa, formerly head of the Soto Sect,
and has written many books on Buddhism
in both Japanese and in English.
For over twenty years, he has been

Dear Nicolas Gounaropoulos San,
Thank you very much for your cinsere question, and my answer is as follows.
I would like to say to him or her what he or she would become joyful, but I do never tell him, or her any lie at all. If they are so sincere to listen to the true situations, I would like to say that it is taking a rest, perfectly peaceful, there is no anxiety, or no worry, and it may be perfect darkness for taking a rest.
Gudo Wafu Nishijima
