NEXT SESSHIN in Zen Dojo Amsterdam ‘Gyo Kai’

The sesshin will be led by zenmaster Soko.
Zen Master Soko, Pierre Leroux, met Zen in April 1986 in Rennes and has continued practicing since that date without interruption.
In 1991, Master Kosen ordained him a Zen monk at the La Gendronnière Temple, founded by Master Deshimaru. Tenzo – head of the kitchen of the Kosen Sangha Temple for 12 years, he participated from 1995 in Master Kosen’s mission in Amsterdam. He settled in Barcelona in 1999 and co-founded the Ryokan Zen Dojo of Barcelona.
In 2009, he received the transmission – shiho – from the hands of his Master Kosen at the Yujo Nyusanji Temple. He has been transmitting Zen practice since 2013 in Mexico and since 2016 in Chile; he leads meditation sessions in Europe, Chile, Mexico, and Argentina.
