About me

Gender Male
Occupation Writer, lecturer, meditation teacher.
Introduction I first encountered Buddhism back in the 1990s. Later, as university lecturer, I taught Chinese philosophy, Classical Chinese and some modern Asian sociolinguistics. My long-term research interest is the history of the Arhat (羅漢) cult. I also have experience teaching Chan (Zen 禪) meditation, and giving talks on Buddha Dharma. During 2013 I was given a dharma name, Yankong 演空, which roughly means “The One Who Explains Emptiness”. I am yet to live up to this name.
