I have to say, I’m totally amazed that someone as publicly known as Oprah has been brave enough to do something different and meaningful. While small-minded tabloids are bashing her claiming she’s been brainwashed, or that she’s becoming anti-christian - she still manages to persevere and produce a very good program called The Soul Series Webcast.

Oprah has teamed up with Eckhardt Tolle for live discussion and interaction with the viewers. The website for the Soul Series Webcast also features forums and archived downloads of the shows in video and audio formats. Other guests include Dr. Wayne Dyer, Jill Bolte Taylor - and soon to come is Byron Katie and many others.

Definately a worthwhile listen: Oprah’s Soul Series Webcast

Just came across this site on StumbleUpon, it has numerous links to some good mp3s. There are lectures, lessons, and Sangha. Very nice selection.

I recently happened upon an excellent social network called Guru’s feet. It’s a place for spiritual networking and there are many people who use the site who have an advaita-zen background. In reading through the forums, and posting some one of my own questions I’ve been surprised at the depth and openness of the people using it.

There are blogs, forums, information about events, a section called “Find your guru” where people share links to known gurus, and much more. If you’ve been reading giggling.org and like the content. I strongly suggest checking out Guru’s feet as well.

I’ve been following the Infinite Smile podcast for over two years now and it is some of the most clear teachings delivered. Michael McAlister was a former Zen monk who know holds sangha meetings and retreats in Washington State. His podcast starts with a talk about a particular topic then is followed by a question and answer session with his students.

It will happen in the now - when you will actually open to what is, just the way things are.

You can also purchase a DVD of one of Michael McAlister’s intensives at Online by clicking here.

I’m getting back into the habit of regular postings on my blogs, and setting up some new ones. I will be adding much to this blog in the way of satsang videos, podcasts, and more.

So keep your eyes posted for more Eckhard Tolle, Gangaji, Zen teachings, and whatever else I can find.

Namaste,
Darrin
