   Anushka's Blurbs
About me:
I am a lifelong spiritual practitioner who has done meditation in the Theravada tradition for 20 years in monasteries and meditation centers in the United States, India, and Sri Lanka. Other influences have been mystics of Christian, Hindu, Sufi and other traditions; creative arts; nature; service work; progressive social change movements. I teach dharma in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. I have been part of a dharma teacher training at Spirit Rock Meditation Center and Insight Meditation Society over the past 3 years.
Who I'd like to meet:
anyone who would like to hear dharma, who is interested in inquiring into life, who suspects there is more to our existence than meets the eye! If you would like to join my "friend list" send me a message and I can add you. Below is the schedule of where I will be sharing the dharma. Click on each for more details. Please respect instances where a meditation group is aimed at a particular population (more details on their websites). Thank you!
