July 31 – Discipline: Whatever Whenever
An ex-marine, an author, a teacher of non-dualism, a Western philosopher and a Buddhist. Greg will share his perspective and experience in working with discipline in his life. Whatever comes up in our lives can become the source of joyous growth or deeper suffering. How things turn out depends on how we apply ourselves in each circumstance.
Greg is a teacher of nondualism, combining Western and Eastern approaches. He has taught several emptiness seminars through NBNY.
Having studied Western philosophy at the Universität zu Köln in Cologne, Germany, Greg received his M.A. and Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Rochester. He studied Mahayana teachings of Pure Land Buddhism through Jodo-Shinshu, and has taken formal refuge through the Chinese Madhyamika lineage of the pre-eminent scholar of Chinese Buddhism, Master Yin-Shun of Taiwan, P.R.C., author of The Way to Buddhahood.
Greg has served as managing editor of Philosophical Practice, the journal of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association. He is the author of Nondualism in Western Philosophy, Standing As Awareness, and a contributor to Dennis Waite's Enlightenment: The Path Through the Jungle.
Nationally certified as a philosophical counselor by the American Philosophical Practitioners Association, Greg has a private practice in New York.
