Hey, I recently had a convo with this ex-Buddhist nun and it was a pretty enlightening convo. She's very wise and I think many people on the forum could benefit from some of her videos, especially if you have a formal meditation practice.

She does 1-1 conversations through pure donation if anyone is interested.

Yeah, she's pretty next level.

I think all her videos are likely gems, and it will be hard to find higher quality meditation advice.

Another gem

Exactly. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs"

It's like if you have the ability to donate then it is appreciated to donate, but if it is straining on you to donate then she would likely say don't donate. You can always donate in the future or something.

@Raptorsin7 Ah lit.

Is that a quote from her website or that she said? Funny if it is because that's also a famous quote from one of Marx's works

It just came to my mind when you asked that. In her about me video she mentioned something about her attitude towards donations etc

I looked it up too haha, i was surprised to see it was a Marx quote.

@Raptorsin7 Gotcha haha

Haha. Yeah, you live and you learn.

You know my rage towards Nahm has died down a lot now, now I feel bad. I still think he sucks, but hey I guess everyone is doing their best.

Yeah she's awesome. I'm going to do one of her 30 day retreats in Europe, it will be cool to have her as a teacher. She said her retreats are mostly chill, but for me she would have to be harder on me haha. She knows I need my ego beat down and humbled.
