master
archer
first

arts
classic
Zen
in

ArcheryA
Zen
and
kyudo
(archery)
master,
Awa
Kenzo
(1880–1939)
first
gained
worldwide
renown
after

in
1953.
Kenzo
lived
and
taught
at
a
pivotal
time
in
Japan's
history,
when
martial
arts
were
practiced
primarily
for
self-cultivation,
and
his

life)—including
aphorisms,
poetry,
instructional
lists,
and
calligraphy—are
infused
with
the
spirit
of
Zen.
Kenzo
uses
the
metaphor
of
the
bow
and
arrow
to
challenge
the
practitioner
to
look
deeply
into
his
or
her
own
true nature.
