If there's an issue with Jerry, it's not with his conceptual understanding of nonduality. I tend to agree also. Jerry does lean more towards traditional Advaita Vedanta than the every day pop up neo-advaita "teacher" It's more of the way he runs things that I had issue with. I think I got booted off his forum 3 different times for speaking my mind lol |

Any new blood is quickly spilled and cleaned up. Hehe. |

I called him on some of his stuff and was also banned from the site. |

Greetings.. I tend to agree also. Jerry does lean more towards traditional Advaita Vedanta than the every day pop up neo-advaita "teacher" It's more of the way he runs things that I had issue with. I think I got booted off his forum 3 different times for speaking my mind lol I wasn't posting there very long, though I'm thinkin I'm technically still a member, but my impression is that there's a crusty core group that follows Jerry's lead and conforms to his views, so it feels 'stuck'. Any new blood is quickly spilled and cleaned up. Hehe. A model you are intimately familiar with, you call it 'Spiritualteachers.org'... Be well.. |

Any new blood is quickly spilled and cleaned up. Hehe. A model you are intimately familiar with, you call it 'Spiritualteachers.org'... Be well.. You likely wouldn't survive past your second post there, and yet you thrive here with the same old bloody message month after month, so apparently this 'model' is quite different. The fact that a few peeps disagree with you on a regular basis doesn't imply some kind of forum dictatorship, it implies that a few peeps disagree with you on a regular basis. A few disagree with me too, and yet they somehow survive. I'm also not complaining about anything being stuck. There's also nobody following my lead. Aside from that, it fits the model perfectly. |

That you couldn't survive shouldn't be projected onto me, and yes.. you do complain a lot about peeps not agreeing with you.. and your "same old bloody message" is forged in your imagination and attached to as a stagnant belief.. here's my message: Be still, look and see what is actually happening.. there's no belief about 'oneness' in my message, not about non-duality, duality, separation, truth, etc.. there is no attachment to the stories and beliefs that have distorted people's clarity and led them into suffering and conflicts of ideologies, but.. there is the trust that the clarity born of a still mind's release of beliefs is sufficient to end the needless and preventable suffering of the human experience and of the environment, physical and spiritual, in which the human experience is actually happening.. Be well.. |
