Let's get spiritual with comedian Jimmy Dore

Jimmy Dore (jimmydorecomedy.com); Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly


Jimmy Dore goes from self-help books to pop-psychology and deeper into New Age spirituality, which is a mix of Eastern Philosophy, Mahayana Buddhism (a kind of catholic/universalist approach to religion), Hinduism, Gnostic Christianity, Jewish Kabbala, and the esoteric writings of various great men of history (and at least a few women like Theosophy founder Madame Blavatsky):

John Bradshaw, Ram Dass (Jewish-Hindu Harvard Professor Richard Alpert), Eckhart Tolle (Ulrich Leonard Tölle), Neem Karoli Baba (the "Ram" Alpert is a dass of), Joseph Campbell, Carl Jung,  and his very angry Italian Catholic dad and the equally angry Catholic nuns who mercilessly beat the Catholicism out of him as living examples of "the joy of the Lord."
