Having no "horse in this race", I would say, I find Damo's online persona a bit off-putting. I think he and his mate Adam do posture a bit to provoke reactions As far as abilities go, I would agree with @forestofclarity that he probably focuses more on "power" than wisdom. Personally, fwiw, I know a few teachers who are far more humble and capable than both of them, but they are young (relatively speaking), and therefore have opportunity to grow (especially in the wisdom department). I also like Mark Rasmus a lot more than either of those worthies, simply because he is matter of fact and direct, and comes across as being a lot more genuine.

Was in the park yesterday morning, doing dao gong and Tai chi with my friends. We’ve been practicing at this specific park for close to 10 years now, normally from late spring through fall, as winters in Chicago are brutal. As we were doing the meditation, I started to see what seemed like cobwebs of white light all over, all around us. It is interesting it was visible with both eyes open and closed. Very interesting phenomenon, thought I’d drop this pebble in the proverbial pond and see what happens

Spent most of yesterday in Death Valley, CA. Interesting thing about it was as we descended to below sea level, my dantiens filled up, expanded, and a high tone started ringing in my ears. Curious if anyone else has had similar experiences.
