Presenting the Recently Renovated, World inFamous, Micro-Studio [Located in the “Very Heart of Global Nonduality”, Columbia, South Carolina] ;-)
Betsy and I have spent a great deal of time and effort,
and more than a little money,
upgrading the World inFamous Micro-Studio
with more and better equipment and furnishings.
Our relationship with the thousands of seekers and finders
who utilize my website, videos, podcasts, books, courses,
satsangs and sessions is an oddly intimate one,
given that our family has now grown so large.
This is where I spend the great bulk of my life,
so we thought we’d share it with you.
Love and blessings,
Fred & Betsy

Historically, Shih Tzus and Lhasas were guard dogs at Tibetan monasteries.
The little dogs barked to alert the Tibetan Mastiffs, who then ate the burglars.

I loved seeing your digs. And the reference to one big family warms my heart. So grateful to be a part of this wonderful uniques family.
Love you all,

Very timely (with the just finished satsang) for getting “to know” you better! I remember the last time you posted some of your domestic photos and how big a deal it felt for me. Thanks so much for the invitation to the dance. And yes, I’ll take this dance right now (imagining dancing with you right there in your studio). And with all the others you’ve hooked me up with! (and gracefully somehow with all and One).
Hugs and kisses, Mike

Lovely vib, Fred & Betsy.
Just to think… one day, there’ll be hundreds of thousands of pilgrims coming to the spiritual heartland of America (Columbia, South Caroline) to do puja at this holy shrine – the place where it all began. 🙂
Love

LOL! Betsy and I just laughed and laughed! If they do come, Kieron, tell ’em not to let anyone know why they’re here, or they’ll be run out of town!!
Love,
Fred
