Sweat Lodge Deaths

The deaths from heat exposure in the spiritual sweat lodge last week hit me as so unnecessary, but then many premature deaths are unnecessary and often self inflicted.
What caught my eye, on TV was a Native American lodge with a yen and yang painted on it. This told me volumes. Someone was mixing Eastern Mysticism with Native American custom, a pinch of this and a cup of that to bring in people searching for meaning.

What is it about us, why will we pay thousands of dollars to some stranger who promises to help us find the way when Truth is free, literally under our noses. Perhaps it is the free ticket price that is so revolting.
