Who is Master YongHua
Master YongHua was born in South Vietnam. He came to the United States at the end of 1973 to attend college. He earned a BS degree in Mathematics from the University of Minnesota and an MBA degree from the University of Chicago.
After working for the corporate world for decades, he decided to leave the home life to study Chan under Great Master XuanHua in 1995. In 1999, he became fully ordained under Master Mãn Giác. He then went to Taiwan to study Chinese and the Vinaya for two years. He came back to the United States in 2001. He practiced in seclusion until 2005 when he started teaching Chan and accepting disciples. He now devotes his time in propagating Mahayana Pure Land Buddhism and training left home people.
What is Chan Meditation
Chan (called “zen” in Japanese) is the most advanced form of Mahayana Buddhist meditation. We follow the tradition of Wei Yang lineage, one of five Chinese Chan schools transmitted by Grand Dharma Master XuanHua. We adapt Chinese Chan training methods to the Western culture and call it “American Chan”. Since 2005, students of American Chan from all walks of life and many continents have been improving steadily from beginner to expert levels, thus enabling them to better cope with the increasing complexities and challenges of modern times.
Chan meditation will provide the most practical and realistic solutions to your day-to-day life problems. Chan meditation will produce solid and concrete results to those who are willing to do hard work and put consistent efforts. Our focus is to help you develop your concentration power which will provide an immediate and practical application to your life, enhancing your work and daily routines.
