He didn't have a " product line " . :-) If he would have when I was there I would have screamed - WHAT??? :-) I suppose now that he's gone on the circuit in order to keep people he's got to offer something. :-) I had a nice time yucking it up with him when I was met him. So when I saw this post of his it was a let down. And I thought what the heck kind of bs is this. Oh well. There's a sucker born every minute. :-) Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember he was billed as someone who went through a number of spirichul transformations -- and then his teacher asked him to teach ... (So, what's a poor boy to do?) He had a nice smile and talked in a friendly kind of way, seemed likeable. I remember him saying that he never knows what he's going to say next. (Now - how did he know that?) He seemed to have a repeating theme about working on yourself and relationships as the natural thing to do after " realization " . (I wonder if he knew he was gonna say that?) He didn't seem to have much use for people who get stuck in the Absolute ... Or was it people who get halfway up the mountain and think they're at the top? Well, take your pick, it was something like that, or maybe both :-) (Help, I've ascended and I can't get down ...:-) People I talked to said there's a lot of silence and sitting during his retreats, I think along the Zen line that it supposedly helps you to become more " accident-prone " ... Funny how people love to go on retreats with spirichul teachers who have them sit and be quiet -- I guess it just wouldn't be the same sitting and being quiet without a spirichul teacher around ... someone embodying that nondual state ...

It seems it's either sex, power or money with some of these guys. They'd sell their own grandmother down the river.
