Conversations with Avant-garde Sages
the nondual teacher training this year, and in Amsterdam. So they
are really much more rewarding for me than conferences which
can tend to be a little bit intellectual.
TRIP: Yes. All right, well one last question for you. You've got the
trainings, and the book, and the exercises, and it's all excellent
material. You also confess that there must be a network of support

that with our listeners and audience, and I really appreciate that.
TRIP: We only have a couple more minutes, but I had one last
