They could be at the right moment in their life where they are open to a non-dual epiphany and whatever they seem to be doing in their life doesn't really seem to be making them feel fulfilled anyway and they make that connection. The transition to non-duality is always in a sense orthogonal, so throwing it at almost all and any situation could be warranted based on that point alone.

I discovered non-duality when I was extremely dysfunctional and you would've probably argued I needed some kind of standard psychological intervention/teaching instead (and I was actually looking in that direction prior to that), but that didn't seem to change the fact that my life became quite different after that point.

Fair enough.

I still think some discernment goes a long way.

Maybe spamming the nondual stuff has some value too, who knows.

@Carl-Richard

That Nahm dude cannot be defended.

He replied with non-dual platitudes to someone that was seriously about to commit suicide. And that someone did commit suicide in the end.

I'm not saying Nahm was responsible. But he was clearly unwise and irresponsible.

Yes, this. I thought I only remembered this and doubted if it was my memory. His non dual mumblings were cute at first. Then he was posting it everywhere without even understanding where people are at.

I don't believe that platitudes are responsible for the suicide . . at best it was probably neutral and didn't changed the outcome.

Carl's gonna ask you to go through 20K of Nahm's posts to find that specific one.

It's just uncanny how many people remember him giving inappropriate advice.

But you won't change Carl's mind on the topic of Nahm, it's useless, I've tried.

People who claim to be skeptical—typically regarding the topics Leo addresses—are often highly emotional and lack rigor, operating in a state of denial hence the projection.

Neo-advaitans don't believe what they say, they wouldn't say it if they did because 'there's nobody' to say it to. It's just an attempt to bypass therapy and an aversion to some nagging issue they have, it's intentional dissociation from life - that absolutely fosters suicide, it's toxic and psychosis inducing. Neo-advaita isn't even spiritual, it's similar to prosperity preaching.
