Why DIY Devotion Doesn't Work

Yes there is undoubtedly reductionism of deep meaningful spiritual values in social media’s bite sized over simplifications and spiritual consumerism. But, there is ‘good and bad’ in all things…..( and yes, I know labelling ‘good or bad’ is a spiritual no no :) ) for those one liners, the token wisdom teachings may act as seeds, first steps, a creaking door opening a way onto a spiritual path. We can be lofty, purist, idealist, but that is wishing it were other. I celebrate EVERY crumb of curiosity I witness, every question asked, every beginning taken. They may be small drops in the swelling tide of the raising of consciousness but they are all part of the ocean of awareness.

this sounds like so much spiritual materialism. Being what you think you think is purist is simply noticing what is hurting the world. The crumbs you say celebrate are enriched, poisoned and you still lie to yourself about it.

Burning, what a without compassion answer! Do you have the absolute answer? Nah, buddy — we’re all in the same boat, getting it right sometimes, messing up other times.

your in your boat. I'm in the water, not drowning. I watch fools like you scared to swim and step. It's not that deep so speak for yourself. You confuse sympathy for compassion.
