Ugly and pathetic and sad and most unfortunate. Maybe that's why aspiring yoginis fall prey to dirty old gurus. Maybe that's why aspiring seekers of all stripes turn their trust funds and their souls over to hucksters who apparently have some " juice " . If you don't " need " love or aren't hungry for attention or for somebody to tell you you're OK, then you're way ahead of about 94% of all the groveling and snivelling and drivelling devotees and disciples out there. Good point, Werner. A major one, in fact. Mr. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
