I think www.spiritualteachers.org is a great idea. Iv searched the internet for similar websites and their doesn't seem to be many. I have some personal feedback about the site though. I think their is too many eastern spiritual teachers on the list. For westerners it may be hard for some to understand eastern teachings. Iv researched some of the names on the list most seem to be connected with buddhism or hinduism not something most westerners identify with or understand. There seems to be no Christian spiritual teachers on the list. There are many Christian spiritual teachers or spiritual teachers influenced by Christianity. I think some should be added to the list.

Do you have any suggestions?
BTW, Bernadette Roberts (listed) comes from a Christian influence.

Ah, I responded to you in the introduction section, but I see that you've already found the section that Shawn reads. Good!

William Samuels interests me the most from your list. I'm pretty wrapped up in book publishing and a screenplay at present, so not getting much done on the site. I have a feeling that Daniel Ingram might be the next "target." I never had much interest in spirituality arising from the Christian tradition. Though the Nag Hammadi Library, a New Testament, Peace Pilgrim, Bernadette, and the Desert Fathers sit on my book shelf, they weren't books I turned to repeatedly. Just a personal preference that's reflected in the website.

Hi Shawn,
I just want to thank you for this site. I find it very helpful and honest to get new hints on the path. I'm a little bit into Adobe Photoshop (doing greeting cards for family, friends, photo editing etc.), so if you ever need help in graphic editing, perhaps I can help you.

Best regards
Alex
