Here is the book I mentioned in our chat Buddha Walks into a Bar by Lodro Rinzler. Happy to pass my copy along to someone else at an upcoming meet up if they want it for free also. Here is synopsis if its helpful.
"This isn’t your grandmother’s book on meditation. The Buddha Walks Into a Bar . . . is about integrating that "spiritual practice thing" into a life that includes beer, sex, social media, and a boss who doesn’t understand you. It’s about making a difference in yourself and making a difference in your world, whether you’ve got everything figured out yet or not. This is Buddhism for a new generation—one that is leaving the safe growth spurts of college and entering a turbulent, uncertain workforce."
was the Adyashanti book you shared "The End of Your World"? I wanted to just confirm so I could add to my reading list.
