Subhana Barzarghi

Buddhist Teaching
Background
Zen Roshi
I am authorised to teach in two different Buddhist traditions
- Zen Buddhism and the Vipassana Insight tradition. I have been
practicing Buddhist meditation for over 30 years and received
dharma transmission in 1996 in the Diamond Sangha Zen tradition.
I am the Spiritual Director and resident teacher of the Sydney
Zen Centre, and lead regular intensive Zen Sesshins in Sydney
& Melbourne. I presently supervise four other Apprentice
teachers in the Zen tradition.
Vipassana Insight Meditation teacher
I am also a senior teacher in the Vipassana Insight tradition
and lead regular retreats throughout Australia, New Zealand
and India. I am the founder and guiding teacher of the Kuan
Yin Meditation Centre Inc., in Lismore which is a dedicated
non sectarian space for spiritual practice. In 1999 I set up
a Vipassana Insight group in Sydney called the Blue Gum Sangha
which meets weekly on the north shore. I mentor and support
several other Apprentice teachers in the Insight tradition.
