  • An unusual and gifted teacher!

    A long time practicing Buddhist friend turned me on to Dave’s teaching. I think he is most excellent & has been very influential in helping me find a path in my own work. Perhaps most of all I love how there’s no pretense with Dave’s delivery. He is sharing his direct experience, his foibles, & his struggles in a way that really opens the door for the rest of us. That is huge. Hope to do an in-person retreat with him one of these days. Rock on.

  • Are you kidding me?

    Why are we listening to the lisp lord slurp Mountain Dew into his mic, while he gurgles platitudes shallow enough to be on a hallmark card?
