Summary
Today I’m speaking about something many people are feeling, but few are articulating clearly — the collapse of the for-profit spiritual industry. For more than twenty years I’ve watched this system rise on glamour, grift, greed, and targeting the gullible. With pay to play access, and high-priced promises, it was a for profit business model that invaded, infiltrated, and took over the spiritual teaching sphere. And now we’re seeing it unravel in real time. I am not here to add to the drama or the outrage. I am here as someone who has been doing this work since long before the guru era began, and who never joined that system. If you’re feeling confused, disappointed, or even betrayed by recent revelations, I want to bring some clarity, some history, and a perspective grounded in truth. This is an important moment, and it’s time we talked about what it really means—and what comes next.
