In honoring our Zen lineage, we also remember the women who have carried, nurtured, and sustained the Dharma across generations. Many of these teachers have been left out of formal records, forgotten by history, or intentionally left behind. This page honors these practitioners of the Way, from many cultures and walks of life, whose wisdom and presence continue to inspire our practice. By including their names, we acknowledge a more complete and wholesome lineage, rooted in remembrance and gratitude.
