E59 Int. Peace, Unity and Overcoming Spiritual Myopia with Optometrist and Author Margaret Placentra Johnston - a podcast by J. A. Plosker

If the eyes really are the window the soul, then who better to write about spiritual unity than a practicing optometrist? Dr. Margaret Placentra Johnston believes that if we only look at what our local community teaches us about religious practice the we are, in a sense, myopic. Spiritually myopic. She dives deep into this concept and provides insight into how we can get past limiting views, expand our vision, and live a more unified spiritual existence.

Listen in and widen your sight. Move beyond “spiritual myopia” and see the value in others’ practices – practices that unify our human spiritual quest to harmony.

“I started to lament the way our society was proceeding – in a very nationalistic and self-congratulating way…this is so counter to spiritual development.”

“So much of our society is myopic in the way they understand religion and spirituality.”

“If you only believe what your tribe taught you, that’s spiritually myopic.”

“You don’t need to have people agree with you…they’re human and have similar goals and drives and they deserve your tolerance.”

“News – they have to focus on exceptional things in order to sell news. You hear exaggerated versions of the truth.”
