Meditation Summer

Hui Neng Stan Koehler, ordained by Jun Po Denis Kelly as a Zen Priest (2004) and by Rama as a Buddhist Monk and a fully accepted member of the Rae Chorze-Fwaz Society of Tantric Buddhist Enlightenment (1992) , cofounded Peace on the Street in 2003 with the intention of providing a program of applied Zen for inner city youth. 

On the physical side, co-founder SiFu Richard Garcia applies Zen through the Garcia Gung Fu Institute, a comprehensive martial arts school.  Hui Neng teaches meditation and provides applied Zen programs in anger management and conflict resolution using the Mondo Zen protocols and core teachings of Dr Lenz in an integrated curriculum designed for urban youth. 

Hui Neng also serves as a Zen chaplain at Mt Sinai hospital as well as agency participant on NYC Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito’s task force to combat youth violence.
