This is a great course Thank you Silas! There were a few tracks with some technical issues where the audio just stopped and I had to use the forward arrow to get it going again and would miss a few seconds of the talk when I did that. Just thought I'd let you know. Love and blessings to you!

This course was very interesting to me as I knew absolutely nothing about any of it. So for that, I am grateful. It certainly has opened my eyes to different views and insights of different spiritual paths. I did want to mention, however that there are glitches in the recordings and in almost every days session There were time lapses, and pauses...
