Meditation instruction and formal Zen practice is led by Senior Dharma Teacher Michael O’Sullivan, a student of Dae Soen Sa Nim (Zen Master Seung Sahn) and Zen Master Wu Kwang from the Kwan Um School of Zen.
The Guiding Teacher of The Three Treasures is Zen Master Wu Kwang (Richard Shrobe).
Zen Master Wu Kwang, (Richard Shrobe), is one of the first American students to receive transmission from Dae Soen Sa Nim and is also guiding teacher of the Chogye International Zen Center in New York City. He is authorized to perform all the formal teaching activities of Zen, including the traditional kong-an practice of private interchange between teacher and student. He has been practicing meditation since 1966 and received formal certification, or “inka,” from Dae Soen Sa Nim in 1985.
