See below for the formal bit…

After living for several years in China and S. Asia, I am grateful to have the opportunity to dwell way DownUnder in the beautiful and clean Land of the Long White Cloud.

At the core of any identity is the Heart, and mine is blissfully outshining all the karmic cycles it has been witness to.

As I prepare for the release of my many-year labor on esoteric traditions as seen from an Integral pov applied to the original Tarot Triumphs, I will be spending some time on a forum oriented to such. Feel free to visit my website, Origins of the Tarot.

Sifu Dai has served for 25 years as a cultural emissary between Chinese, Indian, Southeast Asian, and American yoga, meditation and body-mind traditions. He has promoted the rich benefits of yoga and East-West wellness therapies throughout the world.

Dai began his studies of esotericism and yoga at the age of eight in France, where he was raised and served as a Catholic altar boy. He moved to America during the 1960’s, when esoteric traditions, yoga and body movement were mixing together, flowering into beautiful new forms.

After studying the philosophies and spiritual ways of the great traditions at the University of Illinois, Dai was invited to directly study under the Venerable Gia-fu Feng, head of Stillpoint Foundation in Colorado. A co-founder of Esalen Institute at Big Sur, California in 1960, Adept Feng was renowned for his 100% Realization of Tao. He was a founding father of the East-West movement. One of the 20th century's most famous Tai Chi Masters, he remained a legend in most people's minds. His translations of Taoist philosophy classics conveyed to the world the beauty and wisdom of universal spiritual tradition.

Sifu (indicating monk or teacher) Dai is a lineage holder in Venerable Feng’s Way of Tao.
