as an instructor I guess he can wear anything he wants...does not have to wear a robe since he is a lay practitioner, teacher and not currently a monk.
I've listened to Gil's talks on audio dharma for around a year now.....you could have knocked me down with a feather when I noticed he was wearing jeans! Last thing I expected him to be wearing on his legs!!!
You can also hear Gil's talks for free on Audio Dharma podcasts. Check out his free book "The Issue At Hand." Which you can find online as a .pdf. It may change your life!
fronsdal is my absolute favorite. i listen to him regularly because he's the ultimate in "regular guy buddhist." i love when he uses the grocery store or traffic as an analogy.
Gil has shown me a way to make dharma an active part of my life. I had been trying for years. His clarity and calm, and gentle humour are a source of great inspiration to me.
Gil is the best, I must have listen to hundreds of his audio. I also listen every single other audio on audio dharma site. talks by special guests and sceptic are great. Keep them coming. Thank You, to IMC staffs.
Every once in a while I come onto YouTube to see if there are any videos of him. This time there was. :) Gil has touched my life as he has so many of yours... and I am sure you will all touch the lives of so many, as well.
Het guys yeah I've been listening to his podcasts - they are amazing! However I'm still on the lazy path to enlightenment, too many distractions like Youtube etc.
Surprised to see Gil on YouTube, but it's a welcomed surprise. Catch all of the podcasts of ZENCAST. Spirit Rock is a wonderful place with wonderful folks with wonderful messages. Thank you - whoever/wherever it belongs.
Yes, Gil is great. It was from him that I had encounter Buddhism for the first time 2 years ago. At the point of my life I was going through some pretty difficult stuff and, everything thing he said was healing, nurturing, and empowering.
Although I have seen a picture of him, I have never seen visual of him during Dharma talk. In my mind I have always imagined him wearing some kind of Traditional Zen monk cloths.
We listen to Gil at a meditation group on Sunday morning in Oaxaca Mexico. Maybe some day he can come down and speak to us in person!
