I am with this problem. For 14 years I followed a Buddhist master, through his books and lectures on the internet. I loved this master. However, a person came to my city to represent the organization and the master I followed. In many meetings, in front of everyone, when I told about my experiences, she almost always ended up saying that I didn't understand what awereness was. One of the thing more important in budhism that I studied for 14 years. I got so fed up that I started to lose interest in the Buddhist religion and went into a spiritual crisis. Without justifying anything, I stopped showing up at meditation meetings. I feel sad and relieved at the same time. and I began to become interested in the previous religion, Catholic. Its a Google translate, sory for my english. Thanks for the vídeo❤
@@paulapereira2855 thank you for sharing your experience and going to the effort of using Google translate! ❤️ When someone has guru status in any community, it's not a good thing! I am glad you were able to move on and hope you've found a way to get nourishment and enjoyment from your spirituality ❤️
looking to religion (catholic or buddhist) to bypass the discomfort of life and mortality, sets us up for abuse, magical thinking and self-gaslighting. None of them is more correct, they are all hazardous
Lovely timing - I just spent a few hours working through a particular trigger that I was struggling to decide if I should label as spiritual or religious abuse. My mom made a pretty simple post on Facebook about how she wants folks to pray with her to defeat the "evil" amendment citizens here have fought so hard to get on the ballot. Our right to reproductive healthcare, specifically abortion I'm hopeful to open up a conversation about it, though. I've been in school for psych for a while and got her to go to a few family therapy sessions. I know it's extremely personal for her. She fell in love at 18 and engaged in risky behavior...leading to pregnancy. That she then forced herself to carry out and give up for adoption. She explained this to me at maybe 8 years old with the framing you describe in the first few examples. Dismissive, avoidant, grandiose. Like an 8 year old couldn't possibly understand bodily autonomy. My dad unfortunately agreed with her. I felt terrorized by this, completely abandoned. It's been 25 years of this. But if I criticize... Well, I still live with them. How could I be so ungrateful, right? I do struggle to reach out and am so thankful to you for at least providing a safe space online to validate and inform victims. I hope to find resources for online meetings I could attend. I don't have the ability to travel, unfortunately. Thank you again ❤
