My name is Steven. I have been a lifelong seeker of Truth. In my young adulthood, I studied Western, academic philosophy, Christian Systematic Theology and Esoteric, Platonic Christian spirituality. In my early 30’s I became a Tibetan Buddhist. I did a lot of self-study of Buddhist philosophy and spirituality. I have received various teaching and empowerments mainly in the Nyingma and Kagyu branches of Tibetan Buddhism. I have also taken teachings from Zen masters. I explored various types of western psychotherapy and did a lot of study on my own. In all this, my prime motivation was to find relief from my own inner conflicts and suffering. So I was not just studying academically and theoretically. Now I would like to start sharing the results of what I’ve learned and experienced. My hope is that I can make it easier for suffering sentient beings to find their way to peace.
