[Advaita-l] Intensive Vedanta Retreat - Unfolding the teachings - April 18-25

[Daniel Dooley]

I would have loved to attend this but simply can't make arrangements to
leave the country on such short notice.
I hope you will video tape the classes for upload. I'm sure it's not the
same as being there but much better than nothing.
Thank you for letting us know about the class.
