0:07.0	The Welcome to Buddha the gas pump. My name is Rick Archer and my guest this week is Scott Killebe.
0:33.6	Scott is a non-dual author teacher from Southern Indiana. You're probably the only non-dual author teacher from Southern Indiana.
0:38.0	You're probably the only non-dual author teacher in Southern Indiana.
0:42.0	And he is the author of Love's Quiet Revolution, the end of the spiritual search, and reflections
