Matt Zumwalt
Tergar Institute Attendee
Philadelphia
Itinerant engineer-scholar dedicated to helping the world arrange its knowledge, a queer Buddhist software creator, meditator, and student of cognitive science with an affinity for gender-critical performance art seeking boundless compassion in a modern, global, wired everyday world.
I’m also a facilitator for
Tergar, which means that I coordinate a meditation practice group and occasionally present meditation courses from Tergar’s
Joy of Living curriculum. I’ve studied under teachers in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition since 1998, primarily studying with
Mingyur Rinpoche,
Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche,
Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche,
Lama Norlha Rinpoche, Chodak Tulku, and
Lama Tashi Namgyal.
