Jim Newman is really good.

I use to listen to Spira a lot. And then I kind of went off nonduality teachings for a few years.

Only discovered Newman recently from a post here on the forum.

Something clicked. I actually find his message quite clear. 

I'm curious, what do you view as confusing in his message ?

I really don't think he's in this for the money per say.

(He only charges like 10 dollars for his monthly zoom calls, and you can watch the replay for free on youtube.)

Yes indeed, and then there was Leo Hartong’s nondual pointing that said.. Nonduality ,  is the one question to all our answers…. That one’s very good. 

Wow, that one kinda stops the mind for a while.

(Leo Hartong, another name I haven't heard of, sometimes feel there might be more awake people around than we think.)

For a 3 day retreat, accommodation and meals included, with a world class teacher, that seems quite reasonable actually.

So, you can't get his message through a zoom call? That's my point, he just confuses people.

I seem to be getting the message just by watching interviews with him on youtube.

But I'm sure a full 3 day retreat creates the possibility to go even deeper.

ie hearing the message from many subtle different angles.

I haven't been to one of his retreats, so I don't really know what it's like.

So, you don't believe you understand everything he means to teach? That's what I mean by he confuses people.

Why would a retreat reveal more if it's all already quite clear to you?
