		<description>Hi Yoaj,

Thanks for commenting, great to have you around.

Great to hear this video clicked for you, welcome :) That's a great quote, good spotting for it too.

Your question of like minded people is a good one. From my own experience, market/stalls where the 'hippy' crowd hang out are  into various forms of conscious development, and make a good extended support community. 

For like mindeds who practice how you practice, Zen Centers/Monasteries are fantastic places that I highly recommend. They're full of down to earth, friendly people, with good attitudes, and are very helpful and supportive, as soon as you walk through their door.

In the mean time, you're welcome to hang around here, and and help develop our online Sangha. Hope to see you around.

Peace,

Wade</description>
