In the context of the Fall 2020 Practice Period, we have invited CHORO CARLA ANTONACCIO to give the Sunday talk on September 20. This will be broadcast on zoom and also recorded on the website.

Choro Carla Antonaccio began formal Zen practice at Chapel Hill Zen Center (North Carolina) in 1999. She received lay precepts from her root teacher, Rev. Josho Patricia Phelan, in 2001 and priest ordination in 2010. She was shuso in Chapel Hill in 2016. Rev. Choro has practiced at the three temples of San Francisco Zen Center including practice periods at Tassajara and Green Gulch Farm. She moved to Austin Zen Center in the spring of 2020 to take up the position of Tanto (head of practice).

The title for her talk is: ONE BUDDHA AND ONE ANCESTOR

One Buddha and One Ancestor
