At the risk of sounding pretentious, I think I'm one of the few people who has been able to combine edgy work with spirituality. Because part of your spirituality is your voice, and you don't suddenly lose your voice because you're spiritual. Au contraire, your voice gets stronger. So one is not necessarily exclusive of the other. Most people don't think that.
Most people equate spirituality with sitting on a mountaintop being quiet and meditating.
But that doesn't do a tinker's damn to change the world. The really spiritual people are the string people and the people who are willing to lay themselves on the line with their message. But there's such a stigma around spirituality in America today. People are mixed. They want to talk about it, but not too much.
