Seekers and Finders Podcast
Seekers and Finders Podcast cohosts Gary Falk and Stefan Bright, talk to everyday spiritual seekers. Men and women who are still following a specific path or have left a path and have moved on to other paths, or are following their own inner guide to self discovery. In the early days of the Guru sensation, after the Beatles discovered Maharishi and Ram Das wrote his 1971 book "Be Here Now," there was a small movement to discover the inner truth that these men and women were presenting. The age of the guru-cult, with the likes of the Maharishi and Transcendental Meditation, Reverend Sun Myung Moon, the Hari Krishnas and such, opened up doors to self discovery. Our conversations, with those along the Way of the Seeker, hopefully will give new light on the rigorous path to enlightenment. The links below are other ways to join in the conversation.

The Cult Experience
Being in a cult is often a journey that starts with a search for meaning, belonging, or spiritual fulfillment but can gradually turn into an environment of control, manipulation, and isolation.
