one of the briefest recommendations i can give for spirituality to be always involved with at least two different communities, so you will always have a perspective from outside the other one. anything else is too consistently dangerous, every time

the spiritual communities we have are nascent, and young; they have no ability to point to outside themselves, and no wisdom to help connect people with their own discernment, to individuate. to be the good mother and grow them up, then be the wild mother and throw them out

and the ones that are mature will make sure you are not using the community as refuge for too long "get a fucking job!" "go listen to the part of your soul that is asking to do something else! do that too! not just this" https://t.co/4gWCT2dxDU
