Will is one of the best teachers at SRMC. He doesn't take himself too seriously. He's kind and giving and is also kind of cool. Meditation, not just for hippies anymore...not that there's anything wrong with that :)

Thanks for the reminder of mindfulness' gift of courage to face the fear-filled narratives my mind creates which often paralyze me---taking the time to pause and gently investigate for this novice practitioner has been transformative.

I would also recommend Gyobutsuji Zen Monastery for those that want to do an intensive Zazen practice :)

Do you know how a westerner can practice in Burma for more than 2 weeks?
