Angie Boissevain

They continued to return to Tassajara for weekends every year until one summer a student told her that the Zen Master, Kobun Chino Otogawa, was teaching within three miles of her home.

After a few hesitant months, she found her way to Haiku Zendo in Los Altos where Kobun had replaced the ailing Suzuki Roshi as teacher.

[5] In 1983 Kobun and his students formally established Jikoji, Compassion Light Temple in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California, (Boissevain-Jikoji founding) and Angie served as director there until 1993 (Boissevain-Wendy Graham).

After Kobun moved to Taos, New Mexico to create Hokoji, Wisdom Light Temple, he returned to the Bay Area to teach only occasionally.

Three years later in 1991(Boissevain-Wendy Graham), during another memorial service, the robe appeared on the altar and was presented to Angie by Kobun and Blanche Roshi.

There are many recorded dharma talks by Angie on the Internet under sites managed by Insight Meditation Center, Jikoji and Floating Zendo.
