Life

Guarisco was born in Varese, Italy. After spending his formative years in Como, he went on to study art and receive a Master of Arts before traveling to India to study Buddhism.

In the early 1970s, he studied under the auspices of several Theravada leaders in India including Satya Narayan Goenka. He later studied Buddhist philosophy in a Tibetan monastery in Switzerland for ten years, after which he was invited by Kalu Rinpoche to work as a translator in Sonada, India and where he stayed for twenty years. In the meantime he had met in Italy his teacher Chögyal Namkhai Norbu, becoming an active member of the Dzogchen community in 1986.

He served as a coordinator of the Ka-ter Translation Project, as well as instructor of the Santi Maha Sangha program. He was a founding member of the Shang Shung Institute in Italy. During the last years of his life, he also taught the application of meditation to daily life to any who were interested. He taught meditation and contemplation all over the world: including Europe, Russia, China, Australia, the US, Mexico and Latin America.
