The Eighteen Errors of a Spiritual Practitioner (also known as the eighteen prohibitions against hidden evils) from A Precious Garland of the Supreme Path, interwoven with practical commentary from Mark van den Enden's book, Bringing Mind Into View.

In this episode, the hosts will deeply explore the eighteen contradictions and pitfalls that a spiritual practitioner must avoid. They will unpack errors such as:

Living in seclusion but still striving for worldly greatness, fame, and happiness in this life.
Acting as a leader of others while still striving to accomplish selfish aims.
Being learned in the teachings but not fearing committing evil deeds.
Having received abundant oral instructions, yet still retaining the mind and habits of an ordinary person.
Keeping pure discipline but remaining full of craving and high ambition.
Teaching profound oral instructions to others solely to receive food and wealth.
Shrewdly applauding oneself while cleverly denouncing others.
Being carried away by pleasure while being unable to endure pain.
