Notes
Financial Barriers to study are just that, financial. A Connection Framework that charges hundreds or thousands of dollars to access its materials a connection framework that has put up a financial barrier.
Emotional Barriers are barriers, like fear or anger, that make it difficult for a person to study certain materials. For example, a Catholic who fears "demons" may have a hard time studying information on channeling.
Cognitive barriers are barriers, like bias and misconception, that make it difficult for a person to study and understand certain materials. For example, a scientist who asserts Naive Materialism may have a hard time considering the reality of chakras or the existence of [wiki]Spiritual Guides[/wiki]. A Catholic who believes that only the Bible contains truth will have a hard time considering other traditions and systems.
Spiritual Barriers are barriers, like damaged brain structures, serious misAlignment and Disjuncture, that make establishing Connection difficult or even dangerous. A person with a severely damaged Bodily Ego, for example, or a person who is severely out of alignment may resist connection or, if connection is made, may struggle to handle it in a grounded and sophisticated manner.
