Guy will be talking about the Asian masters whom he has met and practiced with, in both the Thai and Burmese lineages.

Ajahn Buddhadasa was a meditator, scholar, and the abbot of Wat Suan Mokh in southern Thailand. Pa Auk Sayadaw is a master of concentration and insight meditation whose main monastery is in southeast Burma.

Guy will use stories, teachings, and photos to convey the essence of these impressive teachers. He will also give a special presentation overview of the lineages of IMS to help put our stories in a larger context.
