After three decades of practice and training in Zen, and in other meditation approaches, and over 12 years of teaching, Henry Shukman “received” a set of teachings that set him on the path of Original Love.

Right at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, while taking a break from teaching in a cabin in the mountains of northern New Mexico, Henry sat down for what he thought would be his first day of rest. Instead, what came over the next 12 days was a hastily scribbled “dictation” that filled several legal pads and proved to be the seeds of a revolutionary new framework – a way of presenting the path of meditation in 4 progressive “inns” or “zones” of practice. This grew into a new, recently published book, Original Love, and a meditation training program of the same name, as well as a newly launched, first-of-its kind meditation app, The Way. Together, they offer a new way of navigating the primary areas of healing and awakening that meditation has to offer, with love as the foundation underlying the entire path.

Henry will be presenting the essence and through line of his Original Love program, with teachings, meditations, some poetry and discussion. He will be signing copies of his new book at the end of the evening.
