This is such a great share, Pat! Thank you!
Louder is wonderful and articulate in her path to awakening.
You may enjoy a book I recently read called "A Crowbar in the Buddhist Garden: Writing from Prison" by a notorious most wanted bank robber, Stephen Reid.

And her awakening story has a nice synchronicity with the Buddhist-Yogi Michael Stone podcast I listened to this morning. The importance of the Yamas (yogic ethical principles) in being 'aligned' living a 'proper' life. Her description of the heaviness of being dishonest and denying the truth. Amazing.
