Recently, we as a community have been having some very important discussions around integrity and our values so that we may be a genuine place of spiritual learning and a safe and inclusive space for practitioners of all sorts, with all types of dispositions who belong to all sorts of spiritual traditions and backgrounds! 

Naturally, we need to talk about issues of sex, money and power which are most often the downfall of spiritual leaders and spiritual communities. Having clear ideals and having the courage to hold one another to them is perhaps the most important thing we can do so that we don't make the obvious (and very natural) mistakes that spiritual communities have been making for not only centuries, but millennia! 

In this Q&A discussion following our Free Will vs. Determinism/Self Effort vs. Grace in Tantra discussion, we picked up on some of the themes from the Advice to Spiritual Teachers & Aspirants talk and expanded on them to present a strategy for staying safe in and getting the most out of spiritual learning communities.
