r/wakingUp

For seven years now, I have used the Waking Up app as an important tool in my meditation practice.

I have managed to keep Sam Harris the meditation teacher/knowledge curator seperate from Sam Harris the public figure (with all his views on culture and current affairs).

After seeing some of his recent shorts on youtube about the situation in Palestine (doing the usual semantics tango on "genocide" or "not genocide"), this has become increasingly more difficult, and I have sought out the guided meditations of other teachers in the app instead.

So, that's how it is. Don't know if there is a point to this post other than expressing the change in my situation and a vague feeling of sadness about this.
