Short clip where Cohen discusses his relation with Zen teacher Joshu Sasaki Roshi. I love his last point. (from Irish music magazine programme Last Broadcast on RTÉ One. Capped circa 2004)

  • I see on your video this was broadcast on Irish tv. I'm raging I missed it. Can you remember the title of the full programme?

  • @Gwenluvsmusic As far as I can recall it was a segment within Dave Fanning's music magazine show called the "Last Broadcast". I didn't see the whole show so I don't know if there was more like this. It's doubtful the whole sequence was done in house, maybe the interview bits were done with Fanning but the black & white film footage of Mt Baldy was most likely from the documentary on Sasaki Roshi and the center by one of his students. I don't know the title of that.

  • Fascinating...and yes, that last point is intiguingly put...the nature of friendship...when who you were or are no longer defines the connection and the relationship.

  • @sweetgypsywife Thanks for the that; after 1,531 views and 6 months yours is the first comment.

  • Hey YouTube this is NOT the film "Last Broadcast" owned by Lionsgate Films. Please remove the copyright warning.

  • Great learning days with a Great Zen teacher!

  • I have read a lot of old Sasaki's sermons form Zen Notes. Of all the teachers in the West he knows Zen the best in that he is most consistent with the Chinese and Korean masters.

  • I red the interview of sasaki roshi in ny times

    I think this: zen buddhist practice is the best to reach meditative mind

    but zen philosophy ....mmm!!
