Meet John and Akincano
Let's take a moment to learn more about our teachers and find out why they are so passionate about Buddhist ethics.
Meet John and Akincano
John Peacock
"I've had a long-term fascination with ethics. My PhD in philosophy was devoted to ethics in both Buddhism and Western philosophy. So I feel very passionate about the subject and that hopefully that will become clear as this course continues."
Akincano Weber
"I am passionate about making the teaching of ethics more central to Buddhist practice. I am a keen on broadening the vision of Buddhism as a path, rather than just a technique and a method... It is my conviction that ethics is the connective tissue of Buddhist practice and that, so far in bringing Buddhism to the West, we all need to do a better job at exposing the importance and the ramifications of ethics to the Buddhist path."
