Great reference video on Youtube -
Why I quit "non-duality" (and fell in love with our vulnerable humanity) - Jeff Foster
[www.youtube.com]
At 8.10 - "I believed I was the most perfect human being on the planet"
"I believed that I had no ego"
At 11.30 "Divinity is deeply infused in the Earth... it's there in a dog poo"
Well, Jeff, I'm sure it is...
What's next for Jeff?

Quote from the video: "I feel like it was becoming a kind of cult."
You don't say!
Now that the cat's out of the bag, I wonder how many others will admit to the horribly flawed nature of the non-duality movement.

Back around 2011 Jeff Foster made a very rare visit to the Santa Cruz area for a talk. This was in his teacher days.
It was also at the time when non-dual teachers made the agreed-upon decision across the FULL non-dual teaching spectrum, including Nome, Russell Smith, Candace O’Denver, Adyashanti, Gangaji, Jeannie Zandi and many others, to place the ENTIRETY of the burden for their lies and deceptions on these shoulders and the shoulders of my family.
That criminal decision made it virtually impossible for me to be myself. Some called it a ‘Soul murder’ akin to being ‘buried alive.’
I was silenced under a death threat and isolated, a tragic circumstance which Adyashanti participated in.
I asked Jeff a question, which had to necessarily be vague due to the death threat, but he knew exactly what I was talking about.
His answer indicated I would be 'crucified.'
At the time, I did not know how that would play out, but what he said was entirely true. Everything was taken away, inclusive of my family being ripped apart to ensure the lies of those teachers would never become public knowledge.
If any teaching does not include the entirety of our Humanity, it is incomplete… and paves the way for harm and control over others.
FULL STOP.
