    One Man’s Heartfelt Warning about Radical Nonduality & Neo-Advaita (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    I wanted to share a readable transcript of my friend Jon’s recent video testimonial where he “shares his experience and the destructive influence of radical nonduality / the open secret message in my life, along with the hopeshot of ways and support in getting out and recovering your self.”If any of it sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

    Read excerpt

    I asked Claude the following question and the answer it gave was so clear and well-organized that I wanted to share it directly.
