“More than 90 years after the death of {{w|Eisai}}, Musho Josho (1234 - 1306) was born. He too went over to China and brought back the Zen of the {{w|Sung Dynasty}}, and wrote the Kozen-ki. His book was a protest against the oppression of Zen by the {{w|Tendai}} Sect. Even in the days of Josho, the oppression was continuing. Therefore, Eisai must have met much oppression, and his resolution for the rise of Zen must have been heroic.”
