HistoryZen Master Shunryu Suzuki arrived in San Francisco from Japan in 1959 to be resident priest of Sokoji, the Japanese-American Soto Zen Mission in San Francisco. In 1961, he and his new American Zen students founded the San Francisco Zen Center. (The early history of Zen Center and Suzuki's life in the U.S. are well documented in his 1999 biography Crooked Cucumber by David Chadwick.[3]) In November, 1964, a "sitting group" was set up in Palo Alto. The first morning zazen and lecture was held at 1005 Bryant Street in Palo Alto. An evening group was later established in Redwood City. In 1965, the morning group moved to Marian Derby's home in Los Altos, joined by the evening group a year later. Meditation was followed by a brief lecture and an informal breakfast, with family-like discussions with Suzuki at the breakfast table. In a tradition that continues at Kannon Do, tea and cookies were served following the weekly lecture. In 1965, Derby tape-recorded and transcribed Suzuki's morning lectures. From 1968, Trudy Dixon edited the lectures into a book, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind, published in 1971.[4] In 1966, the garage was converted to a meditation hall in the style of Sōtō Zen temples in Japan, to Suzuki's design. Construction, by Sangha members, began in June, 1966. Haiku Zendo, named for its seventeen cushions that matched the number of syllables in a haiku poem, was officially opened on August 4, 1966.[5] In 1970, Kobun Chino-sensei became Haiku Zendo's resident teacher.[6][7] In 1979, the Sangha bought a small former Pentecostal church on College Avenue in Mountain View for $40,000. The new zendo was named Kannon Do, "place of compassion". In 1983, Kobun appointed Les Kaye the spiritual leader of Kannon Do.[8] After years of preparation, the present Kannon Do was dedicated on March 3, 2007, on a one-half acre property acquired for $800,000, at 1972 Rock Street in Mountain View. It serves the surrounding Santa Clara Valley communities.[9] Branch centers and centers of similar traditionKannon Do branch centers include

AbbotLes Kaye is the current abbot of Kannon Do.[14][15] He was ordained as a Zen monk by Shunryu Suzuki in 1971. Kaye was appointed spiritual leader of Kannon Do in 1982. In 1986, Kaye was recognized as a Zen teacher and a successor in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki. Kaye worked for IBM in San Jose for over 30 years. He teaches the Meditation at Work program to organizations in Silicon Valley. Kaye's book Zen at Work tells how his own meditation practice enhanced his life and work at IBM.[16] In his workbook Oryoki Manual, Kaye explains the traditional way of serving and eating meals in Soto Zen Monasteries.[17] References1. ^{{cite web|last=SotoZen-Net|title=Organization and temples outside Japan|url=http://global.sotozen-net.or.jp/eng/temples/outside_jp/America/18.html|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=The Soto Zen Buddhist Association|url=http://www.szba.org/centers/kannon-do/|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=David|first=Chadwick|authorlink=David Chadwick (writer)|title=Crooked Cucumber: The Life and Zen Teaching of Shunryu Suzuki|year=2000|publisher=Three Rivers Press|isbn=978-0-7679-0105-5|pages=464}} 4. ^{{cite book|last=Suzuki|first=Shunryu|title=Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind|year=June 28, 2011|publisher=Shambhala|isbn=978-1-59030-849-3|pages=176}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Hiestand|first=Barbara|title=Chronicles of Haiku Zendo Including Memories of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi|url=http://www.cuke.com/Cucumber%20Project/suzuki%20stories/haiku1.html|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 6. ^{{cite web|last=Otogawa Roshi|first=Kobun Chino|title=Kobun Chino Otogawa Roshi|url=http://www.jakkoan.net/Kobun/|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Kobun Chino Roshi|url=http://www.jikoji.org/kobun.html|accessdate=29 October 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120427200950/http://www.jikoji.org/kobun.html|archivedate=27 April 2012|df=}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=Gratefully Remembering Kobun Sama|url=http://www.kobun-sama.org/english/biografie.htm|accessdate=29 October 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111011173507/http://www.kobun-sama.org/english/biografie.htm|archivedate=11 October 2011|df=}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Being at the old Haiku Zendo| url=http://olympiazencentereidoblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/being-at-old-haiku-zendo.html| accessdate=29 October 2011}} 10. ^{{cite web|last=Misha Shungen|first=Merrill|title=Zen Heart Sangha|url=http://zenheartsangha.org/zhsleadership.aspx|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=Ahaland Zen Center Lineage|url=http://ashlandzencenter.org/lineage.html|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 12. ^{{cite web|last=Cornelia Junfu|first=Shonkwiler|title=Middle Way Zen|url=http://middlewayzen.org/about.html|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 13. ^{{cite web|last=San Francisco|first=Zen Center|title=San Francisco Zen Center Related Groups|url=http://www.sfzc.org/zc/display.asp?catid=1,11&pageid=27|accessdate=29 October 2011}} 14. ^{{cite news|last=Kaye|first=Lester|title=Zen And The Art Of Being In The Present: A Teacher Talks On Meditation|url=http://www.dharmaweb.org/index.php/Les_Kaye_Roshi_-_Kannon_Do_Zen|accessdate=18 October 2011|newspaper=DharmaWeb|date=12 February 2006}} 15. ^{{cite news|last=Kaye|first=Lester|title=Les Kaye Interview|url=http://sweepingzen.com/2010/10/30/les-kaye-interview/|accessdate=18 October 2011|newspaper=SweepingZen|date=October 29, 2010}} 16. ^{{cite book|last=Kaye|first=Lester|title=Zen At Work|year=1997|publisher=Three Rivers Press|isbn=978-0-517-88620-5|pages=208}} 17. ^{{cite web| last=Kaye| first=Lester| title=Oryoki| url=http://www.kannondo.org/resources/oroyoki| accessdate=18 October 2011}} External links
