Cut Through the Crud

4 stars

Used this with a book club for a couple weeks - it was a tough sell haha. Trungpa illuminates a truth which is unavoidably painful - we attach material things to our spiritual practices, to our detriment and demise. A very challenging perspective, but a necessary and balanced one. Some allusions to abuse that I thought were unnecessary (-1 star), but maybe I'm just holding on too tight.
