Soon after retiring, Tracy Budd, who had a strong meditation practice, embarked on an exploration of meditating for four hours a day following the Elephant Path and the teachings of Culadasa.

In this interview we explore what happened over the course the year, the breakthroughs, the breakdowns, the insights and what he learned about doing intensive practice at home.

You’ll find this interview inspiring, particularly if you have ever had fantasies of putting everything aside and doing the kids of practices reserved for monks and renunciates.
