A Steiner education gave Luke a broad foundation from which to explore, especially in nature. This led to a BA (Hons) in Outdoor Education, which finished with an honours thesis, 'Analysis of the Parallels between Physics and Mysticism for the Purpose of application to Outdoor Education.' It was during this transformational year at the age of 23 that Luke began a deeper meditative inquiry. What followed has been 20+ years of study and contemplation of various wisdom traditions and teachers. This study has taken place in Australia, Indonesia, Laos, Thailand and the USA.
