Dogo Barry Graham
• I'm just a man trying to live life with kindness and without causing harm - a daily vow and a daily failure.
• I'm a Zen Buddhist monk, a social activist and a writer.
• If you find value in this blog and would like to support our activities, all donations will be accepted with profound gratitude.
• I'm from Scotland, but have wandered far, and now live in Phoenix, Arizona, where the orange blossom meets the smog.
• I've had four novels and a book of stories published.
• My book on Zen, Kill Your Self, will be published by New World Library in 2009.
• I've written articles for national magazines, including Harper's, Flaunt and Parabola.
• My poetry has been published in magazines and anthologies, and I've had a stage play and a short film produced.
• I've witnessed two executions, invited each time by the prisoner, not the state.
• I'm on the Board of Directors of The Engaged Zen Foundation.
• I'm the Guiding Teacher of The Sitting Frog Zen Sangha.
