I have been visiting Big Sur since the 1960s – wanderings of a young man growing up on the San Francisco Peninsula. Esalen was always available for late night soaks, but never affordable during the day time. Now a bunk bed for a weekend “seminar” costs $555, much higher accommodations available. This is a non-profit organization — very broken. But take heart, within two decades global petroleum depletion will make travel to Big Sur very expensive, the crowds will thin out, and Esalen will become affordable or cease to exist.
Thanks again for this place you provide to us a place to plan the overthrow the the present Esalen management, with love

Not sure if my first post got posted. Anyway, I was at Esalen in the 1980s with my friends Jenny O’Connor and Russell Rae, my wife and daughter. I am intrigued that posts are signed by The Nine. Please explain. I am sad to hear the direction that you say Esalen is heading. For me it was about the edge, taking the risk, pushing the boundaries, the beauty of not knowing.
You may call yourself the eight and a half

The most difficult thing in life, is to live without making judgements regarding “good” and “bad”. There is birth, growth, fulfillment, relative stasis, followed by decline and death. It is all a process. Which can be the “good” parts; and which the “bad” parts? The reason I value old memories of Esalan with Alan Watts and midnight soaks, is that it is one point in time that can never be duplicated again. Life is a circle, we are just in another segment.
