Zen Peacemaker Order: Overview: Preceptors

Founding Preceptors

In 1997 a group gathered together to develop the Zen Peacemaker Order (ZPO) Precepts. This group was called the Founding Teachers and consisted of Grover Genro Gauntt, Joan Jiko Halifax, Eve Myonen Marko, Wendy Egyoku Nakao, and Pat Enkyo O'Hara.

The ZPO Co-Founders, Sandra Jishu Holmes and Bernie Glassman along with the Founding Teachers spent about one year refining the Precepts and creating the ZPO Rule.

The Co-Spiritual Directors of the Zen Peacemaker Order, Roshi Bernie and Roshi Enkyo, have decided to create a role within the ZPO for Preceptors (lay or clergy.) These Preceptors would put extra effort into the study and actualization of the Rule.

Preceptors Myonen, Genro and Mujo











On May 1, 2005 Senseis Nancy Mujo Baker, Grover Genro Gauntt and Eve Myonen Marko were installed as Lay Preceptors of the Zen Peacemakers Sangha.
