"(12:06) Have you ever witnessed a miracle? If so, please tell us about it." "(13:10) Do you consider mudras helpful? If yes, which ones in particular?" "(15:16) Is psychotherapy useful as an adjunct or a support for dzogchen?" "(18:53) How to introduce children to this dzogchen view? What topics at what ages?" "(27:31) Should we do long retreats or short retreats or just one day? What is good?" "(31:57) Our everyday experience is of a body walking in space. Is this more accurately the space in the mind, so we are not in space, but space is in the mind?" "(40:08) At the moment, I conceptually understand that what I see is like a reflection in the mirror.
