Deep dives

Lack of Social and Systemic Critique in the Spiritual World

The main critique of the spiritual community in modern times is the lack of social and systemic critique. The focus tends to be on the individual rather than addressing broader issues. This allows for easy commodification and entrepreneurialism within the spiritual industry, making it easily assimilated into the capitalist system. There is a need to shift towards a deeper level of consciousness and a more inclusive ethos, valuing the equal worth of all individuals.
