Star Wheel Anchor Meditation 

Dharma is for everyone. May all beings be happy.

Explore meditation techniques, guided meditations, and ways of practicing for all levels of experience with me, Shōjin Franz Manfredi. I draw from a wide range of lineages including Soto Zen, Theravada, and Dzogchen and present their teachings in accessible modern and historical contexts. I encourage you to listen and rest, remember to dance and play, and always tend to your own precious heart.

After a lifetime of study I continue my education under the expert guidance of Jokai Blackwell Roshi and am grateful to be a student of Dzogchen master James Low. I am constantly amazed and inspired by the incredible depth and diverse beauty in all of Buddhism and various spiritual traditions throughout the world. My passion to share the teachings of the Buddha springs from the revolution they have created in my own life. I teach regularly at Long Beach Meditation and other meditation centers. Thank you for watching!
