I've been working on a companion website to the forum here which is just about finished. It includes collections of many of the "best" dialogues we've had, as well as the highlights of some of the best paintings, books, articles, etc. I've also included a redirect on the site back to this forum.

This looks interesting. It will take some time to explore it.

They say spiritual masters bear good fruit. You are certainly the source for much of what is there. ;D

Thanks, Alexander, yes, the most important message in mysticism is, "We know a tree by its fruit."  And, we must understand the "fruit" is best described in the Samanaphaa sutta (DN-2) (http://webmail.jhananda@greatwesternvehicle.org/pali/Phala_Nikaya/samannaphala.htm) of the Pali Canon.
