Episode 251: The Impediments of Religion – Part I

April 5, 2019

In this talk on our natural spiritual inheritance, Reggie discusses the impediments presented by religious institutionalism, consumerism, and fundamentalism to the unfolding of each unique human life. In the modern world, authenticity is a lonely journey.

This talk was given at the April 2006 Meditating with the Body retreat held at the Blazing Mountain Retreat Center in Crestone, CO. To find out about the upcoming Meditating with the Body retreat led by Caroline Pfohl and Manuela Mischke-Reeds, please visit our program calendar.
