Mini BiographyAndrew Hall joined Subud in 1993. He was in his early forties and saw a listing for Subud in a local directory of alternative health and spiritual groups. It reminded him of the first time he saw the Subud name, twenty years before, in the early 1970s, in a book by Jacob Needleman called The New Religions. The description in the book had intrigued him the first time—the latihan seemed a fairly straightforward practice that allowed each person their own subjective experience. Time to find out more, and so he dialed the number. Since the time he was opened, Andrew has done committee and helper work and he is presently Vice-Chair of Subud Canada. |

He suggests that Subud members relate their own specific experiences to specific talks and hopes this could be fruitful.
