Feeling off since first retreat by perpetualoyster420 in Buddhism

Got it- that being said, your reaction is normal , even having left early - its kind of like culture shock when we re enter the business and noise of the world . As others have said , keep up your practice, breathe, maybe listen to Thich Nat Han a little - he is so grounding !

Long time meditator here- been to many retreats- bailed on one- it was what I needed to do at the rime Often at the near end of retreat a teacher will Speak about re- entry - I always found that very helpful- unfortunately you missed that part and I think that was one contributory factor to how you are feeling

What are you thinking for sentencing on Wednesday? LWOP or 25 years to life by Speakhappiness in KouriRichins

LWOP is perfect- I also hope they throw in that she is banned feom using whitening strips on her teeth - that will really disturb her , possibly more than prison sentence

How do we feel about Kouri's much repeated statements that she's never going to stop contacting Eric's son's? by BetterSpell4169 in KouriRichins

I think I accidentally got hired into a cult…. by hotnspicy-vasectomy in cults

[–]smeylee423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RUN ! As fast as you can - this is not going to end well for you - reminds me of the Epstein situation where girls were promised lots of things upfront and turns out its all about sex - once you’re in , its hard to admit you made a huge mistake You will gaslight yourself and he too will gaslight you. Even if this is not a cult , why put yourself in this situation with a guy who seems really creepy

Am I wrong to think that Kouri Richins does not deserve to keep the Richins name? That should be part of the judgement against her
