A long time practicing Buddhist friend turned me on to Dave’s teaching. I think he is most excellent & has been very influential in helping me find a path in my own work. Perhaps most of all I love how there’s no pretense with Dave’s delivery. He is sharing his direct experience, his foibles, & his struggles in a way that really opens the door for the rest of us. That is huge. Hope to do an in-person retreat with him one of these days. Rock on.
this talk is very helpful and will definitely listen to it over and over. Dave has a talent for making the dharma funny and interesting at the same time.highly recommend!

Why are we listening to the lisp lord slurp Mountain Dew into his mic, while he gurgles platitudes shallow enough to be on a hallmark card?
Dave Smith’s teachings are thoughtful and accessible. Beautifully delivered with vulnerability, humor, compassion, and grace. Thank you, Dave!
