New Orleans Zen Temple

The New Orleans Zen Temple is a dojo of the Soto Zen tradition in New Orleans, Louisiana. Robert Livingston Roshi is the abbot, and he founded the temple in 1984. Although Livingston never formally received dharma transmission from Taisen Deshimaru (Kodo Sawaki's student), he was sanctioned to teach in the early 1980s. The temple is also the home of the American Zen Association, which gives support to zen dojos and publishes rare Buddhist texts.
