Autorenporträt
Astika Royal Mason teaches meditation in San Diego, CA. He has been a student of Indian Spiritual Master Sri Chinmoy for over fifty years and has practiced his faith in both monastic and non-monastic settings. A universalist at heart, he believes the personal experience of Spirit is similar for all people regardless of religion or ethnicity. The author was born in Texas, but has lived in several states: Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, New Mexico, New York, Massachusetts, and California. California is his present home. After completing his degree at a liberal arts college, he spent a year in VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America) in West Virginia, then worked for the National Welfare Rights Organization. Following his involvement in these organizations, he turned his attention to spirituality. He did residences in Chinese Chan and Japanese Zen monasteries (both here in America) and has been teaching meditation and Zen in San Diego for about eight years.
