Your query

[edit]

Regarding your query on my talk page, I've sent an enquiry to Subhana. This is what she replied:

I have written three book chapters for three different published academic books:-
1. " The spiritual needs of the Aged and Dying: A Buddhist perspective” by Subhana Barzaghi in Ageing & Spirituality across Faiths and Cultures,(2010) Ed. by Elizabeth MacKinlay, Jessica Kingsley Pub. London.
2. “Socially Engaged Buddhism” by Subhana Barzaghi & Gilly Coote in Spirited Practices – Spirituality and the Helping Professions, (2007) Ed., by Fran Gale, Natile Bolzan & Dorothy McRae-Mahon, Allen & Unwin Australia
3. “The journey of a lay female Zen teacher” by Subhana Barzaghi, in Buddhism in Australia – Traditions in Change (2011) Ed., by Christina Rocha & Michelle Barker – Routledge Press – London.
There is also various biographies of my background, work and experience on 3 main web sites other than my own:
1. Director of Sydney Zen Centre – Roshi in the Diamond Sangha. www.szc.org.au
2. Director and founder of Insight Meditation Institute Inc. – www.insightmeditationinstitute.org I am the guiding teacher and trainer for the 2 year Mindfulness & Compassion Teacher Training course. I am also the Director and guiding teacher for the 4/5 Dharma Teacher Training course for the Institute.
3. Psychotherapist, Buddhist Teacher, Educator and Trainer for the 2 year course at Australian Association of Buddhist Counsellors and Psychotherapists. A.A.B.C.A.P. Web site: www.aabcap.org
I also advertise my Insight retreats that I teach at Byron Bay on two main web sites: www.insightmeditationaustralia.org & www.dharma.org.au

In response, I said it would be good if others have written about you. Her response to that (I shall paraphrase) is that a friend, who is a professional biographer, has written a bio but that is as yet unpublished. And "many years ago, about 20 years ago, a short biography about me was written in a journal, called, Blind Donkey, published in California Diamond Sangha in the States." She's not entirely sure about the name of the journal but she'll check with them whether somebody can dig it out. This is where it's at for the time being.
