Head of San Bo Dojo in Göteborg, Sweden
Senshin a ordained monk and zen-pioneer in Sweden, is formerly a diciple of Master Etienne Mokusho Zeisler; The foremost diciple to Master Taisen Deshimaru. Senshin, however recieved Tokudo by Master Yuno Rech, a short while after Mokusho Zeislers sudden and unexpected death in 1990.
After many years with intensive practice at San Bo Dojo as well as La Gendronniere and other temples, mainly under the direction of Master Doko Triet, he grow unsatified with the direction of his former Sangha and went to the zen temple Antaiji, japan in search of a more intensive and serious practice of Dogen-zen.
senshins way, rooted in an intensive practice of zazen and hard work have led him to question the framework of zenpractice in the west( but not the practice of zazen as he considers this to be the root, the foundation of a higher way of life). This zazen is transmitted in the soto-zen school but there are other elements too that is transmitted and this is what have driven Senshin into a fresh and lifegiving doubt about zen, transmission in Europe :
The sound of the valley stream
is his great tongue,
The colors of the mountains
are his pure body.
In the night,
I have heard 84,000 hymns,
But how to tell it to people
the next day?
To follow the traces of this doubt, and for a serious study:
Antaiji
And this very well researched article:http://www.lastelladelmattino.org/buddista/index.php/in-english/miscellany/conf/un/
We have this text by the painter and poet William Blake about Europe:
But how to tell it to people of Europe
the next day?

“(Founder and C.E.O., Leonard) Buzz, has been working on construction software for decades. A native Texan, he joined the Carpenter’s Local in Austin and became a journeyman walls-and-ceilings contractor. He worked as a foreman and eventually became an estimator. In 1981, Buzz says he was ‘one of the first guys standing in line at the computer store with $3,000 for an IBM PC with two floppy drives and a green screen.’ He began tinkering with his own estimating applications, (and) eventually hired a software developer and in 1988 launched QuickBid, an estimating program tailored to Divisions 5-10 contractors.
In time, Buzz released On Center’s On-Screen Takeoff, which has the ability to link an estimator’s job-cost data to computers used in the field. The license for this link is DPC (Digital Production Control), which Buzz has been beta-testing in the industry.”
Today, On Center offers a full MS Windows-based suite of applications that include On-Screen Takeoff™, Quick Bid, Digital Production Control, and Report Builder, the company’s latest beta query and reporting application. On Center’s primary goal is to move the construction industry up to current technology standards by eliminating paper blueprint plans and manual processes.
Though based in the United States, On Center has business partners that act as distribution channels in Asia, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, New Zealand, Panama, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. In addition to international business partners, On Center also has US satellite offices in Cleveland, Ohio, Austin, Texas, and Richmond, Texas.
In 2003, On Center assembled an academic program to benefit construction education. Currently, On Center has 152 programs in 119 schools using On-Screen Takeoff and/or Quick Bid. Participating schools are located in the US, Australia, Mexico, and Canada, and include 2-year, 4-year, and technical colleges and universities such as: Texas A&M University, Brigham Young University, and Purdue University.
