GUEST LECTURE - Roshi's Favorite Sutra

Come join guest teacher Roshi O'Hara as she takes us through some highlights of the Vimalakirti Sutra, a Mahayana Buddhist text that focuses on the nature of nonduality.

Roshi Pat Enkyo O'Hara, PhD, is the Abbot of The Village Zendo. A Soto Zen Priest and certified Zen Teacher, she received dharma transmission in both the Soto and Rinzai lines of Zen Buddhism, through the White Plum Lineage. Roshi currently serves as the Guiding Spiritual Teacher for the New York Center For Contemplative Care. She also serves as Co-Spiritual Director of the Zen Peacemaker Family, a spiritual, study and social action association. Enkyo Roshi's focus is on the expression of Zen through caring, service, and creative response. Her Five Expressions of Zen form the matrix of study at the Village Zendo: Meditation, Study, Communication, Action, and Caring.
