Hi my name is Roger Wells aka Roger Hart, After a successful music career in Australia I went on to study and teach meditation. I have been teaching for over 15 years now as well as writing several books. With two decades of training in both Thailand and Sri Lanka, my fascination with Vipassana meditation methods is undiminished. In the course I teach, my goal is to imbue the same fascination in my students, and the same enthusiasm for the unique self knowledge and improved well being that Vipassana brings. My other passions are travelling, playing guitar, song writing, painting, photography and working on my various other writings.
My works include 'Levin's God', 'Happy To Burn' and 'Love and Imagination' ...more

A bit about me....

My name is Roger Wells,

I seem to lead a strange life drifting between chaos and order. With a pathalogical dislike of the notion of ‘job’ … that is, selling life-time for money … I make a living from many different sources, and travel as much as I can, and am currently in Thailand.My travel stories about my travels can be found at http://yinyangtravelling.com
