He is the seventy-ninth Patriarch in his lineage and has been teaching constantly around the world, leading retreats and giving talks.

Cutting off all discursive thoughts takes us to the wellspring of our true nature, and brings us to the present moment. What are you doing just now? Paying attention to this moment is what Zen practice is all about..." (Zen Master Wu Bong)
