It's okay--in fact it's more than okay--if podcast episodes come with a warning label. Today's label: NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART.
Joining me as Executive Contributor to the show is Master Spiritual Teacher GP Walsh. As you will recall, GP joined me last month for two gritty and hard-hitting episodes about men and the role of masculinity in our modern world.
Today, we talk about the modern world for what it is: a spiritually demanding time. Spirituality is under assault, and the tribe we have to defend is no longer our own close circle of friends and family members but the entire planet and everyone on it.
How do we find the spiritual maturity to get us collectively and individually past the point where we find ourselves, i.e. at a breaking point of our old ways of being? Make no mistake: this is happening.
All is not lost, however. Collectively, we have reached this point because enough people have said yes to self-inquiry. Enough people have begun to sincerely follow the spiritual path, in whatever form it may take, and ask the fundamental question about our reality.
That said, tension and confusion gets poured into the mix by "cappuccino spirituality," practices that seek to avoid the heart of the matter and the real self-inquiry, where we are forced to look at our own foibles. We find we cannot avoid this part, though many of us try.
The start of any deep spiritual process, and the answer to our pressing questions during these times, is with radical self-acceptance. We have become cut off from ourselves, and we release all this conditioning. In the end, we will find we have never gone anywhere.
