Patrick Kearney and Emma Pittaway

Patrick Kearney has practised in the Zen and Theravada traditions for over 40 years. He has a particular interest in the original teachings of the Buddha, before “Buddhism” was invented, and applies them to our everyday life in the contemporary world.

Emma Pittaway is a regular teacher at the Kuan Yin Meditation Centre. Inspired by the Buddha and his followers, who lived and meditated in the forest, she draws on the natural world to support  her practice, and teaches an open 'natural awareness' approach.
