Plenty!
Yes, I do enjoy tickling Joe's toes and "letting him speak for me". Ok...seriously....
Biggie...
His explanation in Mythos II is quite deep. In fact, I have not found any other of his lectures to be quite so in depth...as he takes us from the foundational thinking of Hinduism to Buddhism and then onward to Kundalini Yoga, where he does a nice job tying in psychological theory...and then out the transcendent top hatch. If you do not have it, consider getting it, it is fantastic...IMHO.
I do not feel it is necessary to defend using Joe's work at a guidepost toward philosophical thought. It seems that some folks already have it figured out, which begs the question why bother with us who are still floundering in the mud...most of the time when one reaches nirvana, they just walk into the woods.
