"Awakening is an experience that many people seek. Indeed, awakening can bring clarity, peace, and insight, but it can also be one of the most difficult experiences that we humans face. Most of us need support on the journey, and many of us have no idea where to go for that support. As someone who "woke up" by accident, I am now devoting a significant portion of my time to helping others navigate this miraculous, yet challenging, journey."
"We've all probably seen at least a few cult documentaries by now (I find them fascinating). Unfortunately, awakening can easily be co-opted by the ego and result in dangerous and traumatizing groups. This is why it's so important to listen to your intuition. Notice what inspires or calms you. After reading, meditating, or attending a retreat, ask yourself: Did the experience bring clarity or confusion? Avoid paths that create fear, pressure, or self-doubt. Never do something just because an awakening teacher tell"
