About
Bhikkhu Cintita Dinsmore

Bhikkhu Cintita, formerly John Dinsmore, is an American-born Burmese-ordained Theravada monk who lives in a monastery in Austin, Texas USA. He received a Ph.D. In linguistics from the University of Califorina at San Diego, and was in his younger days successively a scholar of linguistics, cognitive science and artificial intelligence, a professor, an inept businessman and a corporate researcher and developer. He dropped out of professional life to become a Soto Zen priest for some years, before entering fully into monastic life. He posts writings on-line at the link below. Please note that the nominal cost for these books reflects Lulu's cost of printing. As a monk I accept no royalties, but offer the Dhamma only as a gift.
