What is an AWAKE teacher?
Living on the surface of our language and concepts doesn’t serve us. We need to be willing to think deeper, not to jump to conclusions or live in assumptions. That’s exactly what a functional approach to spirituality should be.
In this week’s episode, Ava unpacks the confusion around what an awake teacher even means.
00:30 Introduction
01:24 What is an awake teacher?
03:51 Why I avoid the term awake
07:06 My problem with these terms
09:31 The problem is not the explanations
10:09 The rationalisation of inappropriate behaviour
12:03 Can’t I just loosen up?
13:12 Healthy scepticism
14:38 Why are people doing this
15:42 Is it wrong to praise teachers?
18:09 Conclusion
Increasing accessibility to functional healing + non-dual spiritual oneness.
