Plum Mountain Refuge is a community of Buddhists who practice in a mixed tradition that is based on the Pali canon and the Theravadin traditions that surround the historical Buddha’s original teachings.
Kobai Scott Whitney is the spiritual director and conducts meditation classes in the coastal, Grays Harbor area of Washington as well as leading retreats around the northwest. He especially works with marginalized people who do not feel comfortable in other spiritual communities: people in 12-Step programs, those recovering from prison or homelessness, domestic violence or loss of a loved one.
Kobai had many years of Zen training under Issan Dorsey in San Francisco and Robert Aitken Roshi in Hawaii. He currently teaches in the Theravadin tradition and is affiliated with Santikaro’s Liberation Park, which is in the Buddhadasa line of Thai Buddhism.
