Who Has the Courage to Stand Alone in the Truth

Who Has the Courage to Stand Alone in the Truth – Andrew Cohen

Who Has the Courage to Stand Alone in the Truth? is a short, sharply worded essay by Andrew Cohen, the American spiritual teacher who founded the Impersonal Enlightenment Fellowship, later known as EnlightenNext, and edited the magazine What Is Enlightenment? In this early booklet, published by his own Moksha Press in 1992, Cohen turns a critical eye on the spiritual scene around him, arguing that much of what passes for teaching and community in that world is compromised by ego, self-interest, and a reluctance to be genuinely honest.

Cohen’s central question, reflected in the title, is who among spiritual teachers and seekers is actually willing to stand by an uncomfortable truth once it becomes clear, rather than soften it to keep students, income, or reputation intact. Written in the direct, confrontational style that marked his early teaching career, the book challenges both teachers and their followers to examine where convenience and self-protection have quietly replaced real spiritual integrity.
