I guess I need to read some of his stuff. I watched part of a video of him on Oprah once because people kept talking about him.
That particular presentation I found kind of annoying. I also felt it was common sense. If I am already GETTING what he said and you think I might be him, perhaps that is why I wasn't so impressed as what he was saying seemed common knowledge to me. If it wasn't common to me I might really get into him.
I haven't really given him a chance other than that video though so perhaps I need to check him out some more soon.
I highly recommend the audio of him reading "A New Earth" - there is something about his voice, real wisdom and zen comes through all of it.
I am no fan of Oprah and thought she tried to drag him down to her level, while he just looked bemused. But he really is exceptional, and my comment was intended as very high praise :)
Hahaha.... I took it as praise. Yet I also was shaking my head. I should take it as praise as I know Dan Larimer ( @dan ) is a fan of that guy, and I am a fan of Dan's work, and his writings.
Ugh......
