World-renowned American Meditation Teacher, Jack Kornfield, at Songdhammakalyani

Jack Kornfield and his wife Trudy Goodman, who is also a meditation teacher, came to pay respects to Venerable Dhammananda. They were accompanied by friends Maggie Spiegel and Tom Lesser, who helped found IMS, the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts. It was such a joy to have them at the temple!
