“One of the lies being perpetuated in the name of meditation is that you need to be submissive and spiritual in order to practice. In other words, develop a false self and meditate as that.

Ira Israel is challenging a whole army of these crippling, imprisoning assumptions that people are being told to impose upon themselves.”
