I have been studying with Andrew Holecek for many years, focusing on advanced Buddhist practices such as dream yoga, the dying process, and the Six Yogas of Naropa. Andrew is my favorite Western dharma teacher due to his tremendous ability to synthesize the Eastern wisdom and practice tradition with modern Western science and psychology. He presents his deep understanding in an accessible way that unlocks new levels of insight for me. He is able to present very advanced practices and topics in a way that is delightfully understandable because he has boiled down his extensive dharma practice and wide-ranging scholarship in the cauldron of personal experience. Out it comes with humor, clarity and insight, and this applies to both his books and personal presentations. I attend every single teaching of his that I can get to – he is that useful to me.
