Episode 156 - The Trouble With Gurus

Episode 156 - The Trouble With Gurus

Edward Checks in about the new job, but also a harrowing experience of pain and infection. While transitioning jobs, Edward takes some unplanned time off which he finds he needed without realizing it. While enjoying the time off, Edward contracted an infection in his lip that eventually required a hospital stay and surgery. Edward shares with us how throughout the ordeal he has a better understanding of the chronic pain people live with. Jason shares some of his experiences with his chronic pain and what it’s like living with it long term. Edward ends up with a few experiences of the new job which he finally got to start and some of the perks he’s finding.

In a world seemingly full of spiritual teachers and gurus, there are a lot of choices, messages, and pitfalls. Today we talk about some of the pitfalls with following one guru or teacher, not only for the follower, but also for the “guru” involved. We discuss some of the experiences Mary Garden writes about in her book the “The Serpent Rising”, as well as some of our own experiences on both sides of the world of gurus. Finding spiritual teachers can be difficult and we discuss our methods for vetting information and following our own journey.
