What would you have to offer unless they were trying to make it not just Tolle? And how didd they perceive you as a Tolle contemporary? I could see Deepak or the like but... Or were they just wanting to put you on skype for a bit? Strange, something doesn't make sense here.
They probably found me via the web or a personal referral. Lots of people in this field know about my website, so the fact they contacted me didn't surprise me. People contact me with interesting offers every week. One of my articles ranks in the top 10 for a Google search on "power of now," so that would have been one possible connection to Tolle.

I think they were looking to recruit additional trainers to help teach Tolle's material. Teaching someone else's material is the wrong path for me though. They'll surely find someone else who can do a good job as a Tolle trainer. That isn't the best way for me to help people.

I really didn't care what exposure or money was involved -- if the path is wrong, it doesn't matter if it's paved in gold.
