Scenario

When spiritual groups avoid necessary conflict in the name of harmony

Five of us have been meeting monthly for spiritual practice for two years and one person dominates every discussion while another never speaks, but we've all been too polite to address it directly. The group isn't working anymore but we're all conflict-avoidant and spiritual people who don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very gentleness that draws people to spiritual community can prevent the honesty that community requires to thrive.
