Kaz and Mayumi Oda also had a project called Plutonium Free Future with an office in Berkeley that was mainly, I think, focused on trying to stop a fast breeder reactor nuclear power plant from opening in Japan and stopping the fuel being sent from France.

50 years of work brings age-old wisdom to West by Don Lattin - more below on this article, the book and 10-2010 event it focuses on.

10-30-10 - 50 years of work brings age-old wisdom to West by Don Lattin, Special to The Chronicle, an article on Kazuaki Tanahashi. The recent publication of Kaz's Treasury of the True Dharma Eye: Zen Master Dogen's Shobo Genzo is one focus of this interview/article. Latin writes:

At Tanahashi's side was a freshly published, two-volume, 1,171-page translation of Dogen's masterwork, "Treasury of the True Dharma Eye" - the culmination of his 50-year collaboration with Japanese scholars and some of the Zen Center's best and brightest American teachers. Tanahashi has spent his entire adult life putting together this profound and poetic rendering - the complete works of one of Buddhism's most important teachers.

The publication of this great work is also the focus of the SFZC sponsored Zen Translation Forum called "Lost and Found in Translation" over the weekend of Novemeber 6-7.

There's a lot of old material that's as good as new if you haven't read it. -DC
