  Hello, I'm Alalch E.. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Sam Harris have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. —Alalch E. 04:39, 19 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

This aspect holds significant importance as it addresses a notable cultural contrast between the East and the West. In the East, there exists a deeply rooted belief that truth, meditation, dhamma, or dharma are immensely valuable, and teachings of this nature are traditionally disseminated freely without any financial exchange. However, in the Western context, this practice is relatively uncommon. Therefore, emphasizing this distinction in the Wikipedia page serves as an insightful observation, shedding light on the differing cultural perspectives regarding the accessibility and distribution of such teachings. By acknowledging this contrast, we can better understand and appreciate the cultural nuances surrounding the value placed on the availability of transformative knowledge without financial barriers.

There is nothing wrong with adding to the Sam Harris article, but your addition does not seem notable enough for inclusion. Also your source is Sam Harris's podcast, which is a primary source but for including something in an encyclopedia we like to have secondary and tertiary sources that demonstrate its significance. Finally, when you make edits it is helpful to leave edit summaries, particularly when reverting another edit for non-obvious reasons, so other editors have some indication of what you are doing.
