A Zen Teacher on the Way of Life - Mitra

Mitra is a Zen priest and teacher. At an early age she became deeply intrigued by the Christian mystics and started reading them in secret. Guided by wanting answers to life's deepest questions such as who am I?, and what is this?, she eventually found Zen Buddhism.
