Raka Banerjee has been practicing in the Zen tradition since 2016 and is a graduate of the Buddhist Chaplaincy Training Program at Upaya Zen Center. She was ordained by Sensei Joshin Byrnes in 2021 as a novice priest and is currently studying with Sensei Genzan Quennell. Her practice is a braided faith of non-dual spiritual traditions – alongside her Zen practice, Raka was initiated (diksha) by Swami Sridharanandaji Maharaj in 2022 in her root tradition of Advaita Vedanta as taught by Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa.
