"I am the organizer and tenant of this room. As such, I wanted to associate myself with teachers who share certain very general principles with me, which you will find below...

All our teachers undergo ongoing training, and we work together to improve our skills.

Non-Hindu

We are not Hindu: implicit references or Hindu levies are made

• or because we are still exploring "what it might mean or do" (e.g. reciting incantations or mantra's/bahjan's)".
