Love Is The Author

Episode 17 - "Spiritual Mentorship"


Listen Later

This weeks episode focuses on the life and times of Jaymee's late spiritual teacher, Vic Anderson, and the nature of spiritual mentorship. Jaymee is joined by Megan Malone, a mentee of his who recently launched a Love Is The Author Meditation Group with her partner in their hometown of Buffalo, NY. Jaymee and  Megan discuss at length the most meaningful qualities of their own student/teacher relationship, what's important to look for in a teacher, and how to be a student. Their discussion is accompanied by actual soundbites of Vic telling the story of how he transformed from being a lowly drug addict to a gentle, spiritual giant who (motivated by the compassion of Tibetan Buddhism and the Tibetan people) risked his final years on Earth rebuilding monasteries in Tibet, while learning about the nature of his mind through ancient meditation techniques as a means of preparing for the eventuality of his own death.
