Sexism? Perhaps. The Buddha was very reluctant to allow women into the Sangha? Sexism? Perhaps. Occult theory postulates that black Atlanteans (incidently there is no evidence for Atlantis - none - it was a fairy story - traded everywhere - nothing remains - funny that - like most myths) had white slaves. The recent enslavement of black people was karmic retribution. Racism? Perhaps. (Max Heindal is the Rosicrucian rascist?) Perhaps it should be realised that Moses may have been a better chiseler than God. That Koran writers are less than literate. (It is interesting that - if you look at a chronologically revealed Koran - it develops in maturity - much as one might expect Muhamad to do) The idea that all parts of a 'teaching' and 'teacher' are complete and perfect - that no culture, social, biological, conditioned responses remain may amuse and inspire our fantasy . . . Some people try and fulfill that fantasy (if they are able to condition themselves to do so). The genuine guru (according to my conditioning) does not provide empty platitudes but situations and questions. The Sat Guru is regarded as more important than God because they lead us to God. God it seems is incapable. Perhaps so. How we react and the answers we find that all depends on our condition and receptivity . . .
