I&#8217;m going to the Sunday show because it includes the Heart of Devotion workshop with KD, and I love his teachings. He&#8217;s the one who said in one of his workshops: &#8220;Don&#8217;t join anything. Learn from lots of teachers and communities, but don&#8217;t join anything. If you join a community, you open yourself up to being exploited.&#8221; That little piece of advice came at absolutely the right time in my life when I was going through a lot of shit with local Buddhist communities. It literally saved my ass.</p>
