A lifelong reader, writer and traveler, he has been publishing newsletters with a spiritual voice since 1994, offering reflections that weave together philosophy, practice, and lived experience from a spiritual perspective.Now, at 65, Dennis is sharing a more open and authentic voice . The 2Rt Mate ecosystem reflects decades of real-world experience across multiple disciplines, filtered through the perspective of someone who remains as curious about what he doesn't know as he is grounded in what he's learned.He is passionately committed to cultivating his pedagogical skills and continuing the growth that has shaped his decades of practice-to-insight-mindset—even when it requires shedding the skin of ingrained or indoctrinated perceptions to fully embrace new ones.
