There’s a pattern that’s been emerging in the spiritual and holistic communities, with various visible teachers, and influencers completely changing course from their original modalities, falling off the pedestal, like Deepak, 😬or even passing away and leaving the Earth plane altogether.😳😞
Communities that have been followers of these folks are having various reactions, such as feeling abandoned, let down , disillusioned, etc. All understandable.
What I feel that this is calling us to, though, is to empower ourselves and build our own spiritual connections to the Divine; however, it is helpful to have strong, frameworks, and from my personal perspective, rooted in ancestral and indigenous wisdom practiced with reverence, humility, and respect.
Some folks will still resonate more with organized religion, and if that really calls to them, then that is fine too
I received a message several years ago when having to move away from one of my own teachers, who went down a completely different path that I could not follow. And the message I got was, and it pretty much sounded like it was in all caps, was “NO MORE INTERMEDIARIES!!”
Now I still believe that having teachers and guides can be helpful, but not when we rely on them 24 seven, or give our power and sovereignty away.
And this is something that I have tried as a Shamanic practitioner and teacher, Energy Healer, and educator to do with my own students and clients, support them in connecting with their own guides, angels and ancestors, and deepening their connection to nature, building their confidence in their spiritual and healing gifts and the way that works for them. Frameworks and practices with roots and a foundation can be helpful when shared with permission and respect, and with someone who has had their own dedicated practice for at least a decade, if not more.
