Our lineage comes out of the Rinzai Korean tradition and here in the United States descends through the dynamic teacher Zen Master Seung Sahn and the Kwan Um School of Zen. (See video link.) Dae Son Sa Nim, the honorific by which he is known, went on to establish practice centers all over the world. The first two students Zen Master Seugn Sahn gave transmission to were George Bowman and Bobby Rhodes (in the video we see them together at 7:14 ).

At that time Dae Son sa Nim also gave Zen Master George Bo Mun Bowman permission to start his own teaching line. Bo Mun Son sa Nim established The Single Flower Sangha lineage.

Our California practice center, Cloud Zendo, is an offshoot of Single Flower Sangha. Single Flower has no fixed location and has always existed as a “floating zendo.”

Danan John Wark Sensei received precepts and inka from Bo Mun Son sa Nim.

Danan produced a privately printed book, “Wild Geese,” a record of Dharma talks given by Bo Mun and his student Zen Master David Dae An Rynick during a sesshin in Tallahassee.

While continuing his studies with Bo Mun, Danan has for more than a decade also studied at No Abode Hermitage with Tenshin Reb Anderson Roshi, senior Dhama teacher at Green Gulch Farms.”

A pair of solitary wild geese flap on the ground and fly up high, a couple of mandarin ducks stand alone by the bank of the pond. Leaving aside for the moment the meeting of arrow points, what about when a saw cuts a scale beam? —
