Good Talk. I am always surprised that in all your interviews, you always ask the questions that comes up in my mind at that moment. Love you Tami, for the great work.

Yet another very good interview Tami. Presence is an intriguing topic to me when striving for authenticity. I have enjoyed an Arjuna workshop where I had a brief glimpse of “vastness.” Thanks for being our viewer advocate. My only qualm is that Hierarchy is indeed inevitable if you talk about spiritual maturity. I loved your “loft interviews” on AQAL with Ken Wilber.

Tammi,thank you for being one of the few spiritual sites/communities that actually “give something” to the community yet dont have their hand out. That said, there are many , many titles in your catalog that are intriguing, yet not intriguing enough to spend $35.00 especially on a download that I am stuck listening to on my computer. Is there any way you can come up with a “Download Club” where for one price per month you can download either so many titles you want or unlimited titles. Sort of like what Netflix does? I think many of us would like to taste many different cd’s, knowing only 1 out of 5 are what they really, really want. So maybe you can come up with something for us. I personally as much as I love your titles, don’t see any value in the instant gratification of a download when the hard copy is only 25% more. I also wish you’d have a “talent search” where people send in 3 min. of talk to see if you would publish them or as a contest to get free stuff. I don’t even understand how to transmit audio. Maybe I’m not alone. -)

Not to take anything away from the other great contributors on this site but I have to say that was the best podcast I’ve ever heard. It is empowering and just makes so much sense. Also, makes me feel for the first time that I have my head on straight rather than trying to wrap it around some other new thought pattern or world view or …
And, of course, Tami is always asking the best question at the right time! Thank you for this!

Wonderful interview — with a depth of spoken clarity that satisfies a deep part of my soul. This interview clearly states and talks about what I am feeling right now.
Thank-you Arjuna. Thank-you Tami.

Enlightenment might just be an illusory concept designed to try to fruitlessly cause us to bypass our humanness. Ouch but maybe true. Arjuna tells us it might be better is ask our self what it is that we really want? Maybe to love one real person deeply? What is blocking this? Who can help us?
We can learn to embrace and accept fear and anger if we are not harming others. Spiritual maturity might be related to us giving our gift to the world. Nice ideas and practices. Thanks.
