Hi Aloka-D, Bgood and all,
First I would like to ask you all to accept my apologies for being so presumptuous and for not strictly following the subject of the thread.
I did watch the video Aloka, and I can understand completely why Bgood finds Noah Levine so relevant to the western world, especially the youth. He comes across to me as one of the few people who can be accepted straight away by western Buddhism as I know it.
I do admit that up until now I have restricted myself to the teachings of Theravadin monks such as Ajahn Chah and Ajahn Brahhm etc. But now realize there is much more to be learned from a wider cross section of 'teachers'. I will definitely be looking at more of Levine and will also check out Brad Warner. Many thanks.

With Metta.
