I have two main aims in teaching. The first is to spread the dharma as widely as possible, offering it to as many different people as I can. The second is to teach a smaller number of people over sustained periods of time.

Although deeply rooted in the Vipassana tradition of Theravada Buddh ...

I feel I'm doing my job when people look into themselves to come to their own deep understandings of the truth, ac ...
