Marty Amin Kraft
Marty Amin Kraft - Through a series of gestalt encounter experiences in 1969 and 70 Marty became aware of the state of shared presence with others and has been a student of this state ever since.
Over that time he has attempted to bring a deeper sharing potential to the community by creating parades, Earth Day festivals, encounter groups, workshops, gardens, and a commitment to living in harmony with the environment.
Marty has been a student of Sufism since 1977. More recently he has been a student of The Diamond Approach of A. H. Almaas, and Sat Nam Rasayan as taught by Guru Dev Singh. Currently he is enjoying investigating these various streams of spiritual understanding, relating them to dzogchen.
He is curious to understand if humans may, by learning to live the essence of these streams, heal the damage done to Earth and all its inhabitants. Marty is an initiator in the Sufi Ruhaniat International Order.

Hi Marty. Just wondering if I could get a mailing address from you to send on some music to you and Joel. I have a cd I'd like to send you both.
THANKS for the Space Zhikrs recording. Really beautiful and interesting how tuning into the camp produced the piece that I brought along. Very similar harmony, atmosphere and same key as your song "The All Pervading Consciousness". Thank you and Joel so much for helping make "The Heart is an Ocean" possible in the zhikr.
Speaking of that, I am trying to pursue the recording of that event as it would be wonderful to have an audio recording of us all singing "Heart . . .Ocean". Do you have an email/address contact I could use to pursue this? It would be greatly appreciated.
What a remarkable camp Marty and thank you so much for all of the spirit that you poured into making it so vibrant and uplifting. I am still sorting it all out and am truly grateful to have taken part in it. May more become possible for Cynthia and I to attend.
Grateful still more for the requested info above when/if you can,
Blessings to you and Joel and hope to see you soon,
Robert Best
