Description

This is audio of a retreat with Adyashanti, from 05/29 to 06/03, 2007.  Sorry no other description was found on the net.*********************Born as Steven Gray, Adyashanti studied Zen for 14 years under the guidance of his Zen teacher Arvis Joen Justi. Arvis was a student of Taizan Maezumi Roshi of the Zen Center of Los Angeles before he requested that she teach. Steve (Adyashanti) was regularly sent by Arvis to Zen sesshins, where he also studied under Jakusho Kwong Roshi of the San Francisco Zen Center. At age 25 he began experiencing a series of transformative spiritual awakenings (see Bodhi). In 1996, around six years later, he was invited to teach by Arvis Joen Justi. However, because Arvis never under went the traditional Zen ceremony of Dharma transmission, though still instructed to teach by Maezumi, Adyashanti is not an official Dharma heir of any particular Zen tradition. Rather he is Arvis Justi’s successor in a lay Lineage originally authorized by Taizan Maezumi.                    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AdyashantiFor lack of a better category, this is going under “Psychology.”
