“The three poisons - anger, greed and ignorance are what prevent us from awakening to our true nature. They are the results of the fearfulness of ego. Enlightenment is the complete experience of fearlessness.”

Abbey Rader & Fearless Mind School

Abbey Rader’s love for the internal martial arts of Tai Chi, Qigong and meditation and the benefits they bestowed on him inspired him to delve deeper into studying these fantastic practices. His passion for these arts is only matched by his dedication to improvised music over the last 40 years. With the encouragement of his teacher Chen Ji Fan, Abbey has begun to lead different groups of adult and teenage students, including those with mental or physical challenges. The results he’s realized teaching them has encouraged him to pursue his own school of Tai Chi, Qigong and meditation training.

The ultimate goal of Buddhist practice is “the empty mind”, or living in your true nature. This brings forth wisdom, as opposed to ego or attachment/desire. This goal is approachable by the practice of Tai Chi Chuan, standing (Zhan Zhuang) meditation and sitting meditation. By incorporating all of these practices the body heals, the mind calms down and insight is developed.

Abbey says, “I love music and hope to incorporate the art of improvisation into these classes soon. In the meantime, the amount of people I’m able to help is increasing and this makes the work enjoyable. Please join us if you’re in our area or get in touch to arrange classes and workshops.”
