@emberlivingood A real open expression of your love for the high and wild country that inhabits the soul of those who recognized the power of the great Sierra Nevada.

Poetry! what a rich heritage.

Sorry, I found the insistent, frustrated baby an unfortunate distraction.

I really enjoyed listening to Gary's poetry and found him to be an engaging speaker as well. I get the feeling he would be a great guy to meet and chat with. Now I want to find some more of his work!

As odd as this may seem, I believe he is the Gary Snyder who replaced my 6th grade English teacher for a while.

@ about 58 minutes- what a (for me) weird, annoying question(?). sophomoric babble coming to nothing which is exacerbated by the loud baby. convoluted attempt at describing zazen (from the woman, i mean).

@Molokai17 If we refer to the Dharma bums, by Kerouac, Gary Snyder did meet William Burroughs.



Japhy Ryder, my hero! There's nothing like hearing the voices of authors you admire. This guy is a legend!

I watched the entire video and after an hour an 17 minutes I still want to see more. I can't believe he said he felt like he wasn't able to get through to people as a teacher! Gary's ideas cut straight through my urban shell and helped me to see my "place in space" as well as my connection to the living, breathing, vastness around (and within) me.
