My life hasn't been static - I spent a lot of time in Europe, a lot of time in India. So I traveled around a lot, and I kept moving.

There must be something here for me to get or to share or to do. So I have the duty that I do, the dharma that I do - which I love - with my teaching, with my family, my son, my students, my girlfriend.

I have a son, and I was married for twenty years, and I got divorced, and there's a new woman in my life, and my son is 18, and I'm interested to see how he's growing.

I'm here, and I know that it's finite; I know that I'm not going to always be here.

You're working yourself till late at night, and sleeping crazy with deadlines - you're doing it for a reason.

What I like the best is when I can be still and not move.

There's the kind of people like me, who spent years in India, have learned Sanskrit, have done this work deeply - they probably say for lifetimes - now interfacing [with the mainstream].
