TSK has definitely been a pivotal force in my life\u00e2\u20ac\u201cboth on a personal\/spiritual level, and in my professional and intellectual endeavors. I am also a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Dharma student,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and see a rich interplay between TSK and Buddhist teachings\/practice. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve done Kum Nye too. Lately, I have been learning and practicing various forms of Qigong and now Chen style Tai Chi.\r\n\r\nI am a professor at San Francisco State University in the Department of Management\/College of Business. I teach MBA students mostly, a course in the Management of Change. I am really not a mainstream business professor. I have contributed chapters to the Dimensions series in TSK, which are edited books by people in various fields that have worked with TSK in different ways.\r\n\r\nI am excited about this online program and Jack\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s new book that accompanies it, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153When It Rains Does Space Get Wet?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\r\n\r\nI look forward to sharing with everyone.\r\n\r\nRon Purser","link":"https:\/\/cciforum.dreamhosters.com\/?author=24","slug":"ronaldp","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7bf76deac5cd5da9949e30a28e8932a623f7ad5b2603f7460672e269cce6906a?s=24&d=blank&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7bf76deac5cd5da9949e30a28e8932a623f7ad5b2603f7460672e269cce6906a?s=48&d=blank&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/7bf76deac5cd5da9949e30a28e8932a623f7ad5b2603f7460672e269cce6906a?s=96&d=blank&r=g"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cciforum.dreamhosters.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/24","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cciforum.dreamhosters.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
