Dear Harada Roshimy name is Marcelo and I'm from Brazil. I live in a place where there is no zen temple or zen group so I practice zazen alone. Is this lonelyness an obstacle in my practice? Can I move forward without the personal help of a master? Can you be my master? Thank you.

Due to Roshi's busy schedule this year, we are currently not accepting any new questions at this time
