Before the session's meditation, Alan raises the issue of retreat and expedition for after the retreat is over.
After the meditation, there are a few questions about the relevance of doing short-term retreats in Dzogchen/Mahamudra/Vajrayana; is it worthwhile to chase after lamas, teachings and empowerments? How to live in the modern world after a long term retreat?

Meditation starts at: 22:48 (silent, not recorded)
