Les Kaye (1933-)
Dharma name: 覚禅慶道 Kakuzen Keidō
Les Kaye (born June 14, 1933) is a Soto Zen priest [覚禅 慶道 Kakuzen Keidō]. He started work in 1958 for IBM in San Jose, California, and over thirty years held positions in engineering, sales, management, and software development.
Les became interested in Zen Buddhism in the mid 1960s and started Zen practice in 1966 with a small group in the garage of a private home. In 1970, he took a leave of absence to attend a three-month practice period at Tassajara Zen monastery in California and the following year was ordained as a Zen monk by Zen Master Shunryu Suzuki. In 1973, he took an additional leave of absence to attend a second practice period, this time as head monk, and in 1984, Les received Dharma Transmission, authority to teach, from Hoitsu Suzuki son and successor to Shunryu Suzuki. He was appointed teacher at Kannon Do Zen Center in Mountain View, California. He and his wife Mary have two adult children and a grandson and live in Los Altos, California.
His first book was Zen at Work, (Random House, 1996.) and he is also author of the recently published Joyously Through the Days: Living the Journey of Spiritual Practice (Wisdom Publications, 2011).
