Over 20 years presenting workshops and seminars on empathic listening, effective communication and accountability throughout the United States and internationally, in Vaisnava communities and in society at large. Dynamic and effective communicator who utilizes extensive audience participation and experiential exercises to enhance learning and retention of information. Testimonies Your thorough and personal approach in presenting the
course, and your expertise as a teacher, added greatly to my learning
experience. You constantly demonstrated the empathic mood and the proper
application of the skills, both in role-playing and in dealing with us
personally. Had your personal example not been so good, the course would
not have had the same impact on me.
I very much enjoyed this course. I feel that the skills I
have learned will help me to be a better husband, father, friend, and
above all, a better devotee. Your courses will help make a more harmonious
situation for pursuing our Krsna consciousness. I feel that the listening and counseling skills presented,
as well as the personal transformation tools, are essential for anyone
acting in a pastoral role, guiding other devotees and caring for their
spiritual life. Such skills should be considered the sine qua non for any
congregational director. A life-changing experience! I really enjoyed the entire
course, and have never gone so deep before. Many areas that had been
unexplored were opened, and I got some new perspectives to consider. I
loved it! It entered like a needle and came out like a plough! I
felt greatly guided in an instructive, enlivening, challenging learning
experience. This is the first time someone has taught me how to pull the
weeds off my heart in such a clear, systematic, practical, and simple way. I found that the course was a very valuable experience. I
feel I benefited greatly. Communication with my children has already
improved dramatically. My limited perspective has also become apparent as
well as the means to broaden it. Improvement suggestions— the course
should have happened 20 years ago.
