Hi again Lola,

My understanding is that there are trancendental methods and there are transformational methods. Trancendental methods tend to be less embodied - some even see having a body as the source of Human problems and suffering - whereas transformational methods tend to be more embodied - the body is viewed as an extemely precious dimension of our True Nature. The Ridhwan work I do is definitely high on the transformational end of the scale. So I am familiar and sympathetic to your current approach which I view as a more inclusive but definitely a more challenging approach.

Darryl
