About the teacher

Linda Clair

Linda Clair began an intensive spiritual search in 1995 after meeting teacher Peter Jones, going on to study with Barry Long and Zen teacher Hogen Yamahata; in 2004 she trained for six weeks at a Zen monastery in Japan under Harada Tangen Roshi, who gave her the Zen name Dai'an Jishin. She now teaches meditation stripped of religious framing, doctrine or hierarchy, open to complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike, and is the author of What Do You Want? Conversations about Enlightenment.

Linda currently teaches through Simple Meditation, offering residential retreats in Australia and abroad, free and paid Zoom meditation sessions, private online sessions, and a program of articles, videos and audio recordings.

Everything changed. All fear disappeared. I was left with nothing and nothing to lose. The depth of peace and satisfaction overwhelmed me, and it continues to deepen every day. Life is immediate. There is no desire for anything more or different. This is enough. (from simplemeditation.net/about/, describing her enlightenment experience during a retreat with Hogen-san at Springbrook, Queensland)
