Zenkai Taiun Michael J. Elliston sensei began his engagement with Zen in the 1960s, when he met Rev. Soyu Matsuoka, Roshi, founder and head teacher of the Chicago Zen Buddhist Temple, soon becoming his disciple. In the 1970s Elliston sensei founded the Atlanta Soto Zen Center, and in 2010 the Silent Thunder Order, of which he is currently the guiding teacher and Abbot, and which is one of the largest and most active organizations for lay practitioners of Zen in the US today. Elliston was born into a working class family on a small farm in southern Illinois. He received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the Institute of Design at Illinois Tech in Chicago, and was the youngest professor in design at the U of I, Chicago Circle Campus, and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. This background contributes to his unique approach to Zen, from a creativity and design-thinking viewpoint.
