About the teacher
Eva Natanya
Eva Natanya holds a PhD in Indian and Tibetan Buddhism from the University of Virginia, with a dissertation on Tsongkhapa's philosophy of tantra, and has spent over two decades studying and translating classical Tibetan texts from both the Gelug and Nyingma Dzogchen traditions. She also holds a Master's in Christian Systematic Theology, and is a longtime teaching collaborator of Dr. B. Alan Wallace.
She is a co-founder of the Center for Contemplative Research, based primarily in Crestone, Colorado, where she serves as a teacher and retreat leader. Ongoing access to her teaching runs mainly through CCR's monthly online sessions and recorded online courses and retreats on shamatha, Dzogchen preliminaries, and Buddhist-Christian dialogue.
“I believe it is the seeking that carries us forward, the longing to understand that little by little reveals the depths of ultimate meaning.”Eva Natanya
