Excerpts:
I am a Western Master. Wherever you look, you will find some master who has had an Eastern master or an Eastern background. It's very difficult to find a Western master. Western masters are totally different to Eastern masters. Although that might not be apparent. A Western master doesn't use Eastern terms. I don't use Eastern terms, unless I have to because there's no Western Anglo Saxon equivalent...
Karma means just repetition of the past. We all have our karma, which is consequences since we were born of all our actions.
