The Hidden Dangers of Spiritual Detachment and a Minimalist Lifestyle

The enlightenment schools from India – yoga, tantra, and kundalini – teach that detachment, abstinence, no possessions and minimalism are important practices. We must transcend our human desires to achieve nirvana, moksha and Self-realization.  But are these ideas dangerous? Is this poverty mindset harming us and limiting our spiritual growth?

The spiritual schools of the East and West disagree. The Eastern spiritual schools recommend minimal involvement with the physical world and material aspects of life. The Western schools recommend mastery of matter – and teach manifestation and alchemy.  Which approach is best? Is one school of thought better?

Explore the topics of spiritual detachment, abstinence from material possessions and minimalism in this Higher Self channeling. Gain a higher dimension perspective on the spiritual teachings that recommend minimal involvement with the physical world as a strategy for spiritual enlightenment. Learn what is helpful and what is harmful on your spiritual journey of awakening.

Blessings and Love.
