Oakland Chan Meditation Beyond Mindfulness + Master YongHua's Dharma Talk

Chan Meditation is the most advanced form of Mahayana Buddhist meditation. Passed down directly from the Buddha through his lineage of Patriarchs to the present, the power of Chan Meditation has been taught to seekers of enlightenment in Asia for thousands of years. "Chan Meditation Beyond Mindfulness" presents these ancient skills to the West in an accessible, easy to follow format so we call it "American Chan". From the basic stretches to the all-encompassing foundations of Buddhism, Chan Master YongHua will reveal the extraordinary method of Chan Meditation, which can benefit all people, regardless of their religious affiliation. 6:00pm-6:15pm: Reception + Greeting 6:15pm-6:40pm: Intro to Chan Meditation, Posture and Techniques 6:40pm-7:00pm: Silent Meditation (15~20 mins) 7:00pm-7:30pm: Dharma Talk by Master YongHua Dharma Host Master YongHua came to the United States in 1973 from Vietnam to attend college. He earned a BS degree in Mathematics from the University of Minnesota and an MBA degree from the University of Chicago. After working for the corporate world for decades, he decided to leave the home life to study Chan under Great Master XuanHua in 1995. In 1999, he became fully ordained under Master Man Giac. He then went to Taiwan to study Chinese and the Vinaya for two years. He came back to the United States in 2001. He practiced in seclusion until 2005 when he started teaching Chan and accepting disciples. He now devotes his time in propagating Mahayana Pure Land Buddhism and training left home people.
