We are a small and somewhat informal group, and we have been in existence since the fall of 1998. Our "meditation halls" are really the living rooms of two of our founding members - Carol Kline and Curt Steinmetz.

In 1994 he received Transmission from his teacher, the Korean Zen Master Seung Sahn. He is a clinical psychologist and the author of Going Beyond Buddha.
