*Brief Biography Gilbert M. Gutierrez –** Chan Master*

Gilbert Gutierrez is a lay Chan master in the Chinese tradition.



His parents were Mexico descents.  He grew up and was raised as a Catholic
in the United States.  Gilbert obtained a BA and also a law degree at UCLA.
In 1974, he was admitted to the California Bar. He has practiced law for
over thirty years in Riverside California.



Growing up Catholic, Gilbert felt a strong tie with the Virgin Mary and the
concept of universal compassion for all beings. But he also had religious
doubts and felt a longing for a great truth which he knew existed but
hadn’t found. His religious search took him to many corners, and he also
practiced marital arts for years.



Being drawn to the meditative dimension of martial arts, Gilbert began
studying with many Chi Gong masters. Gilbert felt the need to find out the
purpose and meaning of the practice. Yet his deeper questions had not been
answered by those mastsers.



Gilbert began a formal training in Buddhism under a Buddhist Chi Gong
Master. By chance, Gilbert read the Diamond Sutra. And, he had a profound
experience.



Later Gilbert met and undertook years of training as a disciple of the
Great Chan Master Venerable Sheng-Yen. After devoted effort, he became one
of five lay-person Dharma heirs. Gilbert is the only American to receive
transmission by Master Sheng-Yen as a Chan Buddhist master.



Today Gilbert teaches Dharma and practices law in Riverside California. He
also travels across the country to teach Buddha Dharma.
