I've discovered helpful practices through some of these new-agey sources. I think as long as the consumers don't get trapped under dogma, hero-worship or financial burdens and do their own due-diligence then I'm fine with these new players.
It may not be "right" that they are raking in the money for centuries-old practices but that's the way it is with capitalism.
- ivm 10y agoSame here but I spent a lot of time to understand where to look. Thanks to Headspace, it made things much easier. I'm not against earning money for teaching and the world needs more mindful people anyway. The problem for me is that most of these sources are very egocentric and focused on personal well-being when the centuries-old practices are deeply philosophical and also teach compassion and loving kindness.
