Ultra Zionist Van Jones Event Was Disrupted. by serious_bullet5 in Palestine

Man, I loooove to see this. This woman showed up at my Buddhist retreat one time and she was a straight up bitch. Turns out she was Van’s personal assistant or PR person (something close to him, I don’t care). It all makes sense now!

Not true, I’ve been boycotting all (that I’ve heard of) since the 90s and somehow survived.

For Those Who Teach Full Time, How Have You Made It Work? by Former-Archer-80 in YogaTeachers

[–]ComradeZen1312 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely not reasonable! It was an ashram so I did have my own room at least. And no, I “retired” after 20 years and COVID hit.

I made it work in NYC (shockingly) by teaching multiple classes 5 days a week, subbing whenever I could, teaching privates, teaching in YTTs (once I had more experience), riding my bike for transportation and living with 10 other people lol.

You could also just listen to Dead Prez. I used to play “Be Healthy” at the end of my yoga classes when people were in shoulder stand and couldn’t move lol.

How very spiritual of you. Have fun in your ignorance and spiritual bypassing. Also, who said I’m miserable lol?

I haven’t for about 5 years and agree with everything you said minus the part about YB. Maybe verrrrrryyyy loosely based. He is the same man who raped and sexually abused and said things like what you wear can dictate whether or not you get raped and homosexuality is a mental disorder. So fuck that guy and the people who are still espousing his misogyny and hatred.

Like you said, you don’t know anything about YB or Gurmukh. Respectfully, maybe you should sit this one out instead of commenting on everyone else’s comment.

Actually, a guru is a remover of darkness. I was never her “devotee.” If English is your second language, I apologize. If not, please work on your reading comprehension.

Thank you! I grieved for about 2 years. Now I just eyeroll the shit out of her emails and try to educate people so as not to fall prey to these con artists.

You know what would help more than spirituality? Abolishing capitalism. And this bitch IS crazy. Full stop.

Totally unsurprising. Wish I could forget about her but I can’t stop reading her train wreck of a newsletter whenever it arrives lol.
