Frequently Asked Questions
"Loving learning about the Dagda, so much of this resonates deeply with me at a time in my life where community, hospitality, responsibility, self care, kingly judgement, and family are such prevalent themes. I did not have a father figure to learn much of what it means to be a man of character and oddly enough I used to look up to a man called Big D in my younger days in place of my biological father. So much of what I am hearing and finding around the Dagda is incredibly synchronistic and I am looking forward to deepening my understanding and perhaps developing a relationship with him. Jon thank you for your work and your courage in presenting your findings and your experience, I would imagine it takes a great deal of bravery to teach this material. I appreciate the honesty and integrity with which you do so."
