About the Collected Talks from Mount Tamborine

During the years 1986 to 1990 Barry Long recorded a short, monthly message from his home in Queensland, Australia.

These 'Talks from Tamborine Mountain' were originally distributed to the group he had been teaching in the UK before he moved back to Australia - the idea being to stay in contact with them. Later, as Barry Long took his teaching worldwide, the tapes went to many more listeners, becoming a highly valued means of staying in touch with him and his latest reflections of truth.

The complete collection is a treasury of wisdom and inspiration - the spoken journal of a spiritual master. These unique recordings are unscripted, intimate and deliver clear, concise and practical advice on every aspect of the spiritual life.

Each year is available as a bundle. The 1990 bundle has a total of 12 recordings.
