Satish is a marvel. They are doing good things in cutting Schumacher College free of Dartington. The new course looks good.

Thanks Josh, it was special for me. I hope I conveyed that. Great to build a sauna like you have done - all good. Like Gurdjieff and his Turkish bath. I will talk about the Warrior Lodge next week.

Thank you so much for your kind words - glad you enjoyed it. The lodge certainly helped me get out of my head more and connect to nature.

Thank you for your account of the sweat-lodge experience. I have found that sometimes we need such experiences to shift the sludgy-stucknesses we drift into. Meanwhile I built a sauna a couple of years ago in the garden, and a weekly dose of detox helps - but it's never as powerful as the group experience and someone else leading, and 'holding the timer' so you go the extra mile. All the best, Josh.

Thank you for this share of your sweat lodge experience. Native Americans have always had the right relationship with Mother Earth and our Father Creator, as well as our physical environment. Massive overpopulation in Medieval Europe/Africa has driven a wedge between the truth of Earth/Sky/Water/Sun and our souls and alienated us from the truth. I pray we can find our way back, but the trail will be strewn with sharp stones. Have a blessed day and spirit filled evening.

Thank you for sharing this extra-ordinary experience! 🙏 It reminds me of WindTrees, where we did a vision quest 25 years ago or so

Thinking about context and meditation and contact with other peoples, even civilisations... I listened to Satish Kumar the other night live on zoom, and remembered his walk round Britain for his 50th birthday those years ago. Good to see and hear him in fine form.
