Steve, your comment about indulging eventually becoming a lot reminds me of something D passed on from his teacher: that maintaining sattva in Brahmin is crucial. It sounds like that teacher leads a sattvic if somewhat reclusive life. He is also talking about 3 stages of Brahman: basic, refined

I'm thinking along the same lines but more for being able to have a home while travelling doing photography. Simple but effective way of getting to places one otherwise wouldn't see. For sadhana a cabin in the mountains is better. Do post a picture of your vehicle if you feel like it :-)
