Jamie Wheal interviews
Andrew Cohen for the
HOMEGROWN HUMANS PODCAST
Dear Friend,
If we really want to make sense of the spiritual path as we try to navigate the emerging metacrisis, we need to address some uncomfortable questions about spiritual authority, and the complicated relationship that can emerge between teacher and student.
In this hard-hitting interview with author and thought leader Jamie Wheal, Andrew Cohen transparently answers questions about his past successes and failures, and discusses the challenges and pitfalls of upholding the “guru principle” in a 21st century context.
Cohen directly addresses the controversies and triggers that surround the whole notion of spiritual authority, and argues unflinchingly that the role of the guru is not only still relevant, but essential for anyone who is deadly serious about the spiritual path. Wheal’s responses are bold and compelling, in an exchange that is full of surprises.
This is the beginning of an essential cultural conversation that all “adults in the room” with spiritual aspirations need to engage with assiduously and deeply.
Where do you stand on the divisive issue of spiritual authority? Listen to this compelling interview, and find out!
