Mindsprings Podcast with Alistair Appleton

So many teachers of spirituality either get mired in the depths of great religions - 10 dimensions of this each having 3 levels of that with 45 separate meanings of the other - or pound one over the head with a few thundering pronouncements of “Thus it is so!”. Alistair offers quiet gems of great insight explained in a simple, at times humorous manner always with a pinch of humility. As a mere beginner 10-year student of Bön, I am often delightfully impressed (and sometimes surprised) with how he fleshes out teachings I have practiced over and over almost by rote— hardly conducive to awareness.

Alistair is a great lecturer and if/when I get to the UK, I will be attending one of his seminars. His tone is relaxed, his diction is excellent, and, quite frankly, I could listen to him read the phone book and be rather satisfied.
