Anyone who ventures into the spiritual marketplace runs the risk of becoming a dilettante, strolling from teaching to teaching, sampling one offering after another, like a single person who goes on an endless series of first dates without really getting to know anyone. There is also the real danger of spiritual promiscuity: voraciously devouring each new workshop, teacher, or philosophy with passion, only to plunge with equal zeal into the next one that comes down the pike, like a midnight club-hopper looking for love in all the wrong places.
