Deeply realized beings impact you outside of the
mind's capacity to understand. There is no "point."
That's just the mind trying to get something to
gratify a desire. Realization is outside of
gratification.

I find it very transformative. And as I go year after year, the effects are
cumulative. A powerful engine on my train.

Yes, once a day. Most stops on the tour are 2-3 days - some longer if
there's a retreat. San Ramon is longest, but tends to be very crowded.

  I've only been once, but I believe a hug every time is what I would 
aim for.  For all the thousands of hugs she gives, it's remarkable that 
you can observe that none of the hugs are perfunctory, her full 
attention is on each person for the moment
