We’ve all heard that old tale of how -in order to become enlightened, you have to detach yourself from the world and go full on hermit mode in a cave in the mountains… but what does enlightenment look like in the modern world?
If spiritual understanding comes from within… it has no bearing on your environment… so what’s stopping you from becoming enlightened in the frozen yogurt isle at Target? Sure, it’s easy to run away to the mountains and meditate because there’s nothing to distract you there… but is that true discipline?
Countless spiritual systems seem to denounce materialism… but we must have our Ego and bodies for a reason… nothing happens by accident, so is it truly wrong to live a material life?
