Hello everyone!
Just wanted to formally introduce myself before I jump in. I've been lurking here for about a week, and I've found the board extremely helpful. I'm here, and I know that is exactly where I am supposed to be.
My false story: I was never interested in "enlightenment" or "awakening" in those words at least, until about six months ago. Most of my life I have been involved in Native American spiritual practices, and still am to some degree. Two years ago I became interested in Yoga, and took a very intensive year long teacher training program; an extremely powerful deep look at the illusion of Self. In the last few days of the program the name "Jed Mckenna" came up, and...well...you all know what happens next... ;D
So here I am. Look forward to talking with you...
Michael

Hello Michael, Welcome on-board. Lots of great stuff here. McKenna can be very dangerous to the sense of the separate self. Luckily for me, I never got to read him; but many people here posted about him.
If you feel inclined, tell us your most ardent wish.
(Mine was to know the real nature of the universe; there's a thread on that)
